i wouldn't call it a 'virtual' impedance, it is a very real impedance.


Yes, it meets the (B) non-dissipative definition of impedance from
"The IEEE Dictionary". It doesn't meet the (A) dissipative definition
and it is not an impedor as it only exists as a V/I ratio. That's why
I call it a virtual impedance. There is no resistor, there is no


and that is part of the problem in here... 'you call it'. what is the
definition of 'virtual impedance' in the ieee dictionary?
