Power electronic converter EMC analysis through state variableapproach techniques

A technique based on the state vector approach and a simple switch device model is proposed for electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) analysis in converter design. The conducted noise spectrum is straightforward computed in the frequency domain for hard switching converters with alternating or direct current input sources. The results are compared with PSpice time-domain simulations mixed with the fast Fourier transform, considering a buck converter. The technique proposed in this paper is appropriate for applications where calculation speed is preferred rather than high precision
