Abstract

A method for adjusting reactance includes an adjustable reactance generator including a comparator receiving an input sinusoidal waveform and outputting a square wave that retains the frequency and phase of the applied sinusoidal waveform. The reactance adjustment is generated using a power switching circuit that receives the square wave from the comparator as a control signal and outputs a square wave that retains the frequency and phase of the applied sinusoidal voltage waveform, an adjustable power supply that adjusts the amplitude of the square wave output by the power switching circuit, and an amplitude detector that controls the output level of the adjustable power supply. The power switching circuit output, when converted to a sinusoid, provides the effect of an adjustable reactance.
