Transmission Lines Basic Theories
1 Introduction
At high frequencies, the wavelength is much smaller than
the circuit size, resulting in different phases at different
locations in the circuit.
Quasi-static circuit theory cannot be applied. We need to
use transmission line theory.
NUS/ECE EE2011

A transmission line is a two-port network connecting
a generator circuit at the sending end to a load at the
receiving end.
Unlike in circuit theory, the length of a transmission line
is of utmost importance in transmission line analysis.

transmission lines.

R = resistance per unit length, (/m)
L = inductance per unit length, (H/m)
G = conductance per unit length, (S/m)
C = capacitance per unit length, (F/m)
z = increment of length, (m)
We use the following distributed parameters to
characterize the circuit properties of a transmission line.
These parameters are related to the physical properties of
the material filling the space between the two wires.

of the surrounding medium.

For the coaxial and two-wire transmission lines, the
distributed parameters are related to the physical
properties and geometrical dimensions as follows:

3.2 Equations and solutions
Consider a short section z of a transmission line
(dropping the primes on R, L, G, C hereafter) :
Using KVL and KCL circuit theorems, we can
derive the following differential equations for this
section of transmission line.

5 Infinitely Long Transmission Line
For an infinitely long transmission line, there can be no
reflected wave (backward travelling wave). So for an
infinite long transmission line, there is only a forward
travelling wave.

Now the voltage and current on the transmission line are
expressed in terms of the known parameters of the
transmission line.

only an incident voltage. It is same as the case of an

Example 4
The open-circuit and short-circuit impedances measured at
the input terminals of a lossless transmission line of length
1.5 m (which is less than a quarter wavelength) are j54.6
and j103 , respectively.
(a) Find Z
0
and k of the line.
(b) Without changing the operating frequency, find the
input impedance of a short-circuited line that is twice
the given length.
(c) How long should the short-circuited line be in order
for it to appear as an open circuit at the input
terminals?
