 A sinusoidal signal is easy to generate and transmit  It is the dominant form of signal in the communications and industries

 Through , any practical periodic signal can be represented by a sum of sinusoids  Circuits driven by sinusoidal current or voltage sources are called AC circuits

14 BASICS OF SINUSOID The terms which we most commonly use:  : The variation of a quantity such as voltage or current shown on a graph to a base of time is a waveform.  Cycle: Each repetition of a variable quantity, recurring at equal intervals, is termed a cycle.  Period: The duration of one cycle is termed its period.

Fig. Cycles and Periods 15 BASICS OF SINUSOID  Instantaneous value: The magnitude of a waveform at any instant in time. They are denoted by lower-case symbols such as e, v and i.  Peak value: The maximum instantaneous value measured from its zero value is known as its peak value.  Peak-to-peak value: The maximum variation between the maximum positive instantaneous value and the maximum negative instantaneous value is the peak-to-peak value.

Fig. Peak Values 16 BASICS OF SINUSOID  Peak amplitude: The maximum instantaneous value measured from the mean value of a waveform is the peak amplitude.  Frequency: The number of cycles that occur in 1 second is termed the frequency of that quantity. Frequency is measured in hertz (Hz)

 Sinusoids, play an important role in the analysis of periodic signals  The derivative and integral of a sinusoid are themselves sinusoids. For these reasons, the sinusoid is an extremely important function in circuit analysis  Consider the sinusoidal voltage, Where, V = the amplitude of the sinusoid v( tVt )sin m  m ω = the angular frequency in radians/s ωt = the argument of the sinusoid 18 BASICS OF SINUSOID

 It is evident that the sinusoid repeats itself every T seconds thus, T is called the period of the sinusoid 2  From the figures, we observe that ωT = 2π T  

Fig. Vm sin ωt as a function of ωt Fig. Vm sin ωt as a function of t 19 BASICS OF SINUSOID  The fact that v(t) repeats itself every T seconds is shown by replacing t by t + T, T v()sin()sin() tTVtTVt  mm2

Vmmsin( t  2  )  V sin  t  v ( t ) Hence, v()( tTv ) t Thus, v has the same value at t + T as it does at t and v(t) is said to be periodic.

A periodic function is one that satisfies f (t ) = f (t + nT ), for all t and for all integers n 20 BASICS OF SINUSOID  The period T of the periodic function is the time of one complete cycle or the number of seconds per cycle  The reciprocal of this quantity is the number of cycles per second, known as the cyclic frequency (f) of the sinusoid. Thus, 1 f  T  Therefore,  2 f While ω is in radians per second (rad/s), f is in hertz (Hz)

21 BASICS OF SINUSOID  A more general expression for the sinusoid is,

vtVt()sin()m  where, (ωt+ϕ) is the argument and ϕ is the phase  Both argument and phase can be in radians or degrees  Let us examine the two sinusoids, Fig. Two sinusoids with different phases

v12( t ) Vmm sin( t ), v ( t )  V sin(  t   ) 22 BASICS OF SINUSOID

 The starting point of v2 in Fig. occurs first in time

 Therefore, v2 leads v1 by ϕ or v1 lags v2 by ϕ

 If ϕ ≠ 0, v1 and v2 are out of phase

 Moreover, if ϕ = 0 then v1 and v2 are said to be in phase as they reach their minima and maxima at exactly the same time Fig. Two sinusoids with different phases

23 BASICS OF SINUSOID  A sinusoid can be expressed in either sine or cosine form  When comparing two sinusoids, it is convenient to express both as either sine or cosine with positive amplitudes using, sin(ABABAB )  sin cos  cos sin cos(ABABAB )  cos cos  sin sin  With these identities, it is easy to show that, sin(tt 180)   tt  sin ,cos(   180) cos sin(tt 90)   tt  cos  ,cos( 90) sin Using these, sinusoid can be transformed from sine form to cosine form

or vice versa. 24 BASICS OF SINUSOID

 A graphical approach can also be used to relate or compare sinusoids as an alternative to using the trigonometric identities,

 The horizontal axis represents the magnitude of cosine, while the vertical axis (pointing down) denotes the magnitude of sine

 Angles are measured positively counter Fig. A graphical means of relating cosine and sine, clockwise from the horizontal, as usual in cos(ωt − 90°) = sin ωt polar coordinates

25 BASICS OF SINUSOID  Similarly, by adding 180° to the argument of sin ωt gives −sin ωt, or sin(ωt + 180°) = −sin ωt as shown below,

+ sin ωt Fig. A graphical means of relating cosine, sin(ωt + 180°) = −sin ωt 26 BASICS OF SINUSOID  The graphical technique can also be used to add two sinusoids of the same frequency when one is in sine form and the other is in cosine form  To add A cosωt and B sinωt as shown, Here, A is the magnitude of cosωt while B is the magnitude of sinωt

27 SOLVED NUMERICALS ON SINUSOIDS

28 Numerical 1: Determine frequency in Hz, angular frequency in rad/s, and the amplitude of the harmonic voltage signals as shown.

Solution: All four signals in Fig. have the same amplitude of 0.6 V, the same frequency of f = 1 kHz, and the same angular frequency of ω = 2πf = 6283.1 rad/s. 29 Numerical 2: Determine the frequency, amplitude, and phase of the harmonic voltage signal as shown versus the base cosine signal.

Solution: The amplitude by inspection is observed to be Vm = 1.0V. The frequency is determined by observing the entire interval from 0 to 3 ms containing three full periods; hence T = 1 ms, and

f = 1/T = 1000 Hz =1 kHz. 30 For the phase determination, we note that the first maximum occurs later in time than for the base cosine, which already peaks at t = 0. Therefore, the phase must be negative, that is, φ < 0. The absolute value of the phase is, T  2 T

which gives |φ| = π/3 for ΔT = T/6 Alternatively, the same result can be obtained by observing that the -1 cosine function is equal to 0.5 Vm at t = 0, so that φ = -cos (0.5) = -π/3.

31 Numerical 3: Find the amplitude, phase, period, and frequency of the sinusoid v(t) = 12 cos(50t + 10°) V. Solution:

The amplitude is Vm = 12 V The phase is ϕ = 10° The angular frequency is ω = 50 rad/s The period T =2π/ω =2π/50= 0.1257 s The frequency is f = 1/T= 7.958 Hz

Numerical 4: Given the sinusoid 45 cos(5πt + 36°), calculate its amplitude, phase, angular frequency, period, and frequency. Solution: 45, 36°, 15.708 rad/s, 400 ms, 2.5 Hz

32 ° Numerical 5: Calculate the phase angle between v1 = −10 cos(ωt + 50 ) ° and v2 = 12 sin(ωt − 10 ). State which sinusoid is leading.

Solution: METHOD 1- In order to compare v1 and v2, we must express them in the same form. If we express them in cosine form with positive ° ° ° amplitudes, v1 = −10 cos(ωt + 50 ) = 10 cos(ωt + 50 − 180 ) ° ° v1 = 10 cos(ωt − 130 ) or v1 = 10 cos(ωt + 230 )

° ° ° v2 = 12 sin(ωt − 10 ) = 12 cos(ωt − 10 − 90 ) ° v2 = 12 cos(ωt − 100 ) = 12 cos(ωt − 100° + 360°) = 12 cos(ωt + 260°)

° It can be deduced that the phase difference between v1 and v2 is 30 ° Thus, it can be observed v2 leads v1 by 30

33 METHOD 2- Alternatively, we may express v1 in sine form: ° ° ° v1 = −10 cos(ωt + 50 ) = 10 sin(ωt + 50 − 90 ) = 10 sin(ωt − 40°) = 10 sin(ωt − 10° − 30°) ° ° But v2 = 12 sin(ωt − 10 ). Comparing the two shows that v1 lags v2 by 30 . ° This is the same as saying that v2 leads v1 by 30

METHOD 3- We may regard v1 as simply −10 cos ωt with a phase shift of +50°.

Similarly, v2 is 12 sin ωt with a phase shift of −10°. ° Therefore, as observed v2 leads v1 by 30 .

o Current i1(t) is in the standard form. Its phasor is IA430

We need to express i2(t) in cosine form. The rule for converting sine to cosine is to subtract by 90°,

° ° ° i2 = 5 cos(ωt − 20 − 90 ) = 5 cos(ωt − 110 ) o and its phasor is IA2 5110  

Transforming this to the time domain, we get i(t) = 3.218 cos(ωt − 56.97°) A
