Abstract

Abstract. It is well known from classical transmission line theory, that transmission lines can be folded into impedances and thereby used in an electrical network setting. But it is also possible to create large networks of transmission lines consisting of tubes and junctions. The tubes contain the transmission lines and the junctions consider the mutual influences of the adjacent tubes or the terminals. The calculation of the currents and voltages at the junctions can be performed with the help the BLT-equation. So far this method is not applicable for nonuniform transmission lines described in a full wave method, because the lack of a distinct voltage gives no possibility for junctions. Junctions only make sense, when the considered network offers the possibility to propagate a TEM-Mode. If this requirement is fullfilled, nonuniform transmission lines could be included in an electrical network. This approach is validated in this paper in form of numerical simulations as well as measurements.
