Abstract
The nonuniform transmission line is traditionally modeled and analyzed in the frequency domain. However, it is difficult to characterize and simulate nonuniform lossy transmission lines accurately in the time domain. A highly accurate and general approach for time domain analysis of lossy inhomogeneous transmission lines is described. The propagator method presented is an exact solution to the lossy telegrapher's equations based on the modal matrix technique. Simpson's rule is applied to produce a remarkably accurate numerically compatible result. An exponentially tapered transmission line example shows that this method is not only simple and efficient, but also an accurate technique for analyzing lossy nonuniform transmission lines with minimal numerical dispersion. Multiple sectioned transmission lines can be handled by a straightforward application of the presented equations.
