The Constant Impedance Tapered Lossless Transmission Line, Yu Kuo Chen Jan 1966

The Constant Impedance Tapered Lossless Transmission Line, Yu Kuo Chen

Masters Theses

"Considerable work has been done on the theory and development of the distributed RC network which is a special case of the general distributed network type of transmission line.

Sir William Thompson analyzed telegraph cables, assuming the RC line as a model. Oliver Heaviside made numerous contributions to transmission line theory. The solution of a two-wire transmission line with constant parameters R and C is obtainable by direct solution of the telegraphist's equations which are developed from the equivalent circuit of an incremental length of the network. The sinusoidal steady-state solutions of certain tapered RC lines have been exhibited. The …
