Transmission Lines and Wave Propagation, Third Edition - Hardcover

Inhaltsangabe

Transmission Lines and Wave Propagation, 3rd Edition addresses this broad topic as a text for upper division students in electrical engineering. It contains a wealth of information that makes it an essential reference volume for libraries and professionals. The book covers major topics such as the velocity characteristic and related observable behavior (e.g., attenuation, distortion, and reflection) from terminations as correlated by means of distributed-circuit theory; dynamic field theory; and applications of Maxwell's equations to transmission lines and rectangular, circular, and elliptical cylindrical waveguides. The numerical results of derived formulas are reinforced through charts, tables, and diagrams, such as plots of voltage and current versus time, lattice, Bergeron and phasor diagrams, standing-wave plots, nomographic charts, and vector-field patterns. Transmission Lines and Wave Propagation, 3rd Edition contains several changes over the previous edition. These changes include additional material on the Bergeron graphical analysis of reflection behavior, the ABCD transmission matrix, earth currents and formulas for the impedence of ground-return circuits, and a descriptive treatment of the elliptical cylindrical waveguide. The first chapter has been expanded to emphasize the dependence of the line parameters on frequency and temperature.
