The time-domain analysis of networks composed of linear transmission lines and nonlinear and/or time-varying lumped circuits is at the basis of design and verification of modern high-speed electronic circuits and large power distribution systems. This book provides an in-depth and comprehensive study of time-domain models of these networks.

The theory of wave propagation on linear transmission lines is presented with an unified approach, that is applicable to any kind of line: two-conductor or multiconductor, lossless or lossy, uniform or nonuniform, with parameters depending or not on frequency. A general method is described to characterize the terminal behavior of transmission lines, and to obtain equivalent circuit representations, both in the frequency and in the time domain.

Unique feature of this book is the extension of fundamental concepts of the lumped circuit theory, such as those of associated discrete circuit and of associated resistive circuit, to networks of transmission lines and lumped circuits. The well-posedness of the network equations and their numerical approximations is deeply investigated by using these concepts. Fascinating phenomena such as periodic solutions, bifurcations and chaos are observed in transmission lines connected to nonlinear active elements.



Key Features:

· A simple, concise and completely general way to present the wave propagation on transmission lines, including a thorough study of the line equations in characteristic form.

· Frequency and time domain characterization of the terminal behavior of any linear transmission line.

· A unified approach for the analysis of networks composed of distributed and lumped circuits.

· Bifurcations and chaos in transmission lines.



Benefits: The book is intended as a reference in advanced courses of Circuit Theory and Design, Electromagnetism, Electromagnetic Compatibility, and as a guide for researchers and industrial professionals involved in the computer-aided design of electrical and electronic networks. The students will find here a simple but rigorous explanation of wave propagation along transmission lines, a completely general method to characterize the terminal behavior of the lines both in frequency and time domain, and a unified approach to study networks composed of distributed and lumped circuits. The researchers and professionals will appreciate the time domain modeling of distributed circuits, providing simple equivalent circuit representations, ready to be implemented in SPICE-like circuit simulators, for the analysis of large networks.

This book will be of interest to a broad audience of engineers and researchers involved in electromagnetic analysis, design of VLSI circuits, power systems, and CAD software development.
