Abstract

Presents a waveform relaxation technique for simulating the transient response of nonuniform coupled transmission lines which are characterized with frequency-dependent parameters. The method consists of iterative waveform relaxation analysis of asymmetric disjoint resistive networks constructed with voltage-dependent voltage sources generated by applying the fast Fourier transform (FFT). The method requires neither convolution integration nor synthesis of lumped equivalent circuits for the simulation of the frequency-dependence of transmission-line parameters. Transient responses of uniform and nonuniform coupled transmission lines with and without skin-effect parameters and terminated with linear and nonlinear loads are simulated for illustration. The accuracy and efficiency of the relaxation technique are substantiated with exact analytical solutions and experimental data.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
