While presenting the underlying principles of Walsh analysis, the authors incorporate many illustrative examples, and include a basic introduction to linear algebra and MATLAB® programs. They also examine different orthogonal piecewise constant basis functions like Haar, Walsh, slant, block pulse functions, and other related orthogonal functions along with their time scale evolution.
• Analyzes pulse–fed single input single output (SISO) first- and second-order systems
• Considers stepwise and continuously pulse width modulated chopper systems
• Describes a detailed analysis of controlled rectifier circuits
• Addresses inverter circuits
Power Electronic Systems: Walsh Analysis with MATLAB® is written for postgraduate students, researchers, and academicians in the area of power electronics as well as systems and control.
