Improved method to extract the short-circuit parameters of the BECM

The current method for extracting the short-circuit broadband extended cantilever model (BECM) parameters requires measurement of short-circuit currents, and is problematic over a wide frequency range, prohibiting each short-circuit parameter to be directly measured. The improved method presented herein eliminates the measurements of short-circuit currents. Each short-circuit BECM parameter is directly found from two measurements, an open-circuit voltage gain and a short-circuit admittance. The method is demonstrated for a published five-winding BECM.
