Publisher's Synopsis
The book covers all the aspects of Network Analysis for undergraduate course. The book provides comprehensive coverage of circuit analysis and simplification techniques, coupled circuits, network theorems, transient analysis, Laplace transform, network functions, two port network parameters, network topology and network synthesis with the help of large number of solved problems. The book starts with explaining the various circuit variables, elements and sources. Then it explains different network simplification techniques including mesh analysis, node analysis and source shifting. The basics of coupled circuits and dot conventions are also explained in support. The book covers the application of various network theorems to d.c. and a.c. circuits. The importance of initial conditions and transient analysis of various networks is also explained in the book. The Laplace transform plays an important role in the network analysis. The chapter on Laplace transform includes properties of Laplace transform and its application in the network analysis. The book includes the discussion of network functions of one and two port networks. The book covers the various aspects of two port network parameters along with the conditions of symmetry and reciprocity. It also derives the interrelationships between the two port network parameters. The book incorporates the discussion of network topology. Finally, the book covers the fundamentals of network synthesis and synthesis of LC, RC and RL networks.The book uses plain and lucid language to explain each topic. The book provides the logical method of explaining the various complicated topics and stepwise methods to make the understanding easy. The variety of solved examples is the feature of this book. The book explains the philosophy of the subject which makes the understanding of the subject very clear and makes the subject more interesting.
