Abstract

Abstract—A theory for the electromagnetic radiation from unbalanced transmission lines is developed. It is shown that radiation results from the convection current that develops in unbalanced transmission lines where the resistances of the lines are unequal. The process that leads to the generation of the nonlinear convection current in unbalanced transmission lines is explained. It is proved that the classical transmission line theory is not valid for unbalanced lines. The convection current and the radiation forces are included in the transmission line equations to develop a generalized model valid for all two-conductor transmission lines. The generalized model is validated via comparisons of its numerical solutions with laboratory measurements.
