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 the first part of this thesis,
two new classes of rational approximations to the ideal delay function
based on the Khovanskii continued fraction expansion of e[superscript]x
are studied in detail in both the frequency domain and the time domain and comparisons
with other delay
approximations (by Budak, Allemendou
and...
