Transistor Hybrid model :
Considera CE configuration of BJT:

The variables are iB, iC, VB(=VBE) and Vc(=VCE). iB and Vc are considered as independent variables. VB= f1 (iB, Vc ) ----------------------(1) iC= f2 (iB, Vc ) ----------------------(2)

Making a Taylors series expansion around the quiescent point IB, VCE vB = (f1/iB )Vc . iB + (f1/vc )IB . vc ---------------(3) ic = (f2/iB )Vc . iB + (f2/vc )IB . vc ---------------(4) Eqs (3) and (4) may be written as Vb = hie ib + hre Vc Where hie =(f1/ib )Vc = (vB/ib )Vc = (vb / ib )Vc hfe =(f2/ib )Vc = (ic /ib )Vc = (ic / ib )Vc hre =(f1/vc )ib = (vb /vc )ib = (vb / vc )ib hoe =(f2/vc )ib = (ic /vc )ib = (ic / vc )ib ic = hfe ib + hoe Vc
