Steady-state condition of switched network†

Abstract

Tho electrical input signal fed to a class of networks utilizing switches is usually of continuous or sinusoidal form or a complex waveform made up of similar functions. After being handled by the network, the signal is modified to include transients or discontinuities. Since these would at some time occur periodically, a better definition of steady-state condition of a switched network is required; for a switched network can be undergoing transients yet behaving in a steady-state condition.
