the systemAfter each run the frequency of the voltage source was
increased. Another MATLAB script (Figure 3b) was used to
process the n files containing time-domain voltage and current
data. It calculated amplitude and phase of input current and
output voltage, saved them as complex numbers and computed
the Z-parameters. After transformation into s-parameters
according to equation (3) they were plotted together with the
VNA data into the same charts in order to allow comparison.
IV. TEST CASE: A MEDIUM-VOLTAGE XLPE CABLE
A. Type and Configuration of the Cable
The chosen test case is based on a medium-voltage cable
with cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) insulation rated for
5 kV. It is designed for domestic distribution systems but it
could also be used for shipboard power systems. It consists of
a stranded copper conductor which is insulated by extruded
XLPE and shielded with a thin copper sheath. For protection
against environmental stress it has a layer of outer insulation.
The XLPE insulation includes two semiconducting layers
which are doped with carbon black. Figure 4 shows the layout
with dimensions.
calibration of the VNA was performed to the plane of the test
cable assembly. The data was saved in magnitude and phase
for all four s-parameters (s11, s12, s21, s22) although the
symmetry makes them to be identical in pairs (s11 = s22 and s12
= s21).

Two different models were chosen to show the process.
The first model is based on lumped elements. It consists of a

incident wave as it reflects and transmits through the machine made the mathematical approach
unreasonably difficult. It was determined that the time-variant conditions could be tested by
analyzing the scattering measurements as a function of rotor position. The measurement setup
can be seen in Figure 4.1 where the VNA is using N–type connectors and measurement leads to
interface with the machine.

(Left) using a vector network analyzer (Right)
In [16] it was concluded that impedance response measurements had substantial error due to
rotor position effects below the first resonance frequency. The test was setup so a comparison
could be made when varying the rotor position during stator measurements. Three rotor positions
were chosen, 0◦, 270◦, and 345◦, corresponding to three different cogging positions of the machine.
Scattering parameters were measured at each cogging position on a 250 W brushless DC motor,
which has a similar design as a permanent magnet synchronous machine. Figure 4.2 is the resulting
deviation in scattering results due to rotor position. The maximum had only a 0.4 dB difference
3-phase motors were considered 3 port and 4 port
networks.
