Abstract
In this paper a new approach to the start-up problem inherent to the large-signal analysis of autonomous circuits in the frequency domain is presented. By insertion of a simple network, depending on one parameter, the oscillator is damped to the stability limit where a linear analysis yields good results. The steady state of the undamped oscillator is then obtained by a continuation method corresponding to the successive removal of the damping network. With this procedure the degenerate solution may be excluded in a straightforward manner.
