In this thesis, characteristics of coupled trigonometric transmission
lines are studied, based on the general theory of nonuniform
transmission lines. The four-port transmission matrix parameters
of the coupled trigonometric transmission lines are derived from the
even and odd mode waves. Two applications of coupled trigonometric
transmission lines are presented; one,...
In this thesis the network analog method is used to analyze various planar multi-conductor structures in multilayered, lossy dielectric media. The method is based on an efficient impedance network representation of the finite difference approximation of Laplace's equation for the electric potential. Using the network analog method, the transmission line...
