Description
Summary:In this work the problem of transients on a lossy transmission line terminated by an arbitrary, including nonlinear, load is formulated. The tranmission line parameters are the constants R, L, G , and C . The exact relation between the input and output voltages and currents in the form of two coupled integral equations is derived by the Laplace transform method. It is shown that the kernels of the integral equations may be represented in terms of either Lommel functions or integrals involving zeroth order modified Bessel functions. Simultaneous (numerical) solutions of these integral equations fulfilling the boundary conditions at the input and output of the line yields the input and output voltages and currents on the line. Finally the exact analytical relations in time domain of the voltage and current at an arbitrary point on the line (and the voltages and currents at the input and output terminals) are derived. In all parts, the problem has been formulated in such a way as to impose the causality condition explicitly.
