2 Port Networks - Impedance Parameters

AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around solving a problem related to two-port networks and impedance parameters. The user initially presents equations for voltage and current relationships but identifies an error in calculating I2, which they believe affects I1 as well. Contributors point out that the input voltage should be corrected from 2V to 20V, and there are sign errors in the relationship between I1 and I2. Additionally, they note that the magnitudes and angles for I1 are incorrect. The user expresses gratitude for the feedback, acknowledging the learning experience despite the errors.

Homework Equations





The Attempt at a Solution


$$\eqalign{
& {V_1} = {Z_{11}}{I_1} + {Z_{12}}{I_2} \cr
& {V_2} = {Z_{22}}{I_2} + {Z_{21}}{I_1} \cr
& {\rm{ - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - }} \cr
& 2\angle 30 = 8{I_1} - j4{I_2} \cr
& 0 = - j4{I_1} + 8{I_2} & \to {I_1} = {{8{I_2}} \over {j4}} = - j2{I_2} \cr
& 2\angle 30 = - j16{I_2} - j4{I_2} \cr
& {{2\angle 30} \over {20\angle - 90}} = {I_2} \cr
& {I_2} = 0.1\angle 120{\rm{ A}} \cr} $$

As I2 is incorrect I haven't bothered with I1. Can somebody point out where the error is?

[strike]Z11 is 6 ohms. EDIT: Oops, I failed to notice you'd included the 2 ohms there.[/strike]

Where it says 2∠30°, change it to 20∠30°. :wink:

Check the relation between I1 and I2. There's a sign error there!

Plus the magnitudes are wrong anyway unless you change the input to 20V or reduce the answers by a factor of 10 ...

Plus, the angle of I1 is off by 10 deg.

Not a good day for the quizmaster.

Thanks guys.

I have learned a lot from this book in spite of the many errors.
