AC Analysis
 Find the AC equivalent circuit by replacing all capacitors by short circuits
 all inductors by open circuit.
 DC sources used for biasing are to be replaced by their internal resistances.
 Ideal voltage sources are replaced by short circuits
 Ideal DC current sources are replaced by open circuits.

Simplified model
base current is normally independent of collector to emitter voltage, we get gr = 0
Under normal operation, collector current is independent of vCE. Thus, g0 = 0, i.e. r0 →∞
