Abstract
This chapter describes the sinusoidal excitation of dissipative lines. It presents the steady-state solution of general equations. The intrinsic equations of a loss-free line have been solved, and the solutions shown to imply the propagation of waves of p.d. and current without any form of distortion. It has been shown that for finite loss-free hues the patterns of wave propagation resulting from successive reflections merged into a steady-state response. It is desired to know the response of a transmission system to an alternating excitation, and it is not always permissible to neglect line losses. To solve the intrinsic equations of a dissipative line for transient and steady-state response to harmonic excitation is a major undertaking. For most practical applications, the steady-state solution is all that is required. The chapter focuses on steady-state response. The intrinsic equations of a dissipative line have been obtained.
