Transmission Lines - General
In general, circuits and networks are made up of
 some components that perform operations on the signals, and
 some others that only carry signals from one place to another
with minimum distortion on the signals.
These components that are responsible for the
transmission of signals are called Transmission Lines
(TL), and they come in various shapes and forms:

Transmission Lines – General
 For microwave circuits and antennas, TLs play important role,
as apposed to their low-frequency applications.
 TLs are extremely short for low-frequency circuits in terms
of wavelength, and can be modeled by considering only the
bulk resistance, which is close to zero in most cases.
 For microwave and antenna applications, TLs are longer, and
hence their influence on the signals passing through them needs to
be accounted for.

Transmission Lines – General
 For the characterization of transmission lines in high-frequency
applications, a special method that utilizes circuit theory as well as
the propagation aspect of the waves is developed and called the
transmission line theory.
 Although the theory can be developed strictly from the
circuit analysis, the major assumptions of the theory, as well
as its limitations, will be missing unless its derivation via
Maxwell’s equations is introduced.
Therefore, a general field-analysis approach is first provided
starting from Maxwell’s equations, and then the transmission line
theory will be developed.

Field Analysis of General Cylindrical Waveguides
General Cylindrical Waveguides (WG)
 guide signals in a preferred direction, called the
longitudinal direction (z-direction);
 confine the fields in transverse direction (transverse to
the direction of propagation, the x-y plane).
Assumptions on the structure:
 it is assumed to be uniform in the
direction of propagation; and
y
 it has an arbitrary cross-section in the
transverse direction.

WGs vs. TLs:
 TLs are made up of two
conducting materials, while WGs
may consists of only one conductor
or many conductors;
 TLs support a special type of waves called
transverse electromagnetic (TEM) waves,
while WGs can support any type of wave
configuration.

Observations from the geometry:
 The fields are supposed to be guided along the
z-direction inside the waveguide between the two
conductors;
 the waveguide is uniform and infinite in the
z-direction;
 the walls are assumed to be a perfect conductor,
and
 the medium between the walls is filled with a
dielectric material or air.
Goal is
to find governing equations and field expressions, as it may be possible to find
a simpler version of the wave equation for such a specific class of geometries.

Field Analysis of General Cylindrical Waveguides
To achieve the goal, some common features of the geometry may
be utilized in Maxwell’s equations or in the field expressions.
For example, because
 the geometry is uniform and infinite in the
longitudinal direction (z-direction), and
 it is used for the propagation of waves in the zdirection,
the electric and magnetic fields should be in the
following form:
y
x
z
Ex, y, z   Ex, y e jk z z
Hx, y, z   Hx, y e  jk z z

 jk z
Why Ex, y, z   Ex, y e z ; Hx, y, z   Hx, y e jk z z ?
Because
y
x
 the geometry supports propagation in zdirection, variations in z-direction are
predicted as exponentials with an unknown
factor (propagation constant),
 there is no geometrical variation along the
z-direction, the magnitudes of the fields are
expected to be independent of z.

Observations: Since Maxwell’s equations are linear in linear media, it is
observed that the fields can be split into three independent modes:
1.Transverse Electric (TE) modes: Ez  0, H z  0
2.Transverse Magnetic (TM) modes: Ez  0, H z  0
3.Transverse ElectroMagnetic (TEM) mode: Ez  0, H z  0
Any field configuration in a waveguide can be written in terms of TE, TM,
and TEM mode contributions, and they are calculated independently.

Dispersion
A wave packet built up from a sum of 100
cosine functions with different
frequencies. In a non-dispersive medium
all of the different frequency components
travel at the same speed so the wave
function doesn't change at all as it travels.
When the medium is dispersive, the wave
changes shape. For this example, the
dispersion is such that lower frequencies
travel faster than higher frequencies. As a
result, the wave packet spreads out with
the longer wavelengths moving faster and
the shorter wavelengths lagging behind.

To devise a circuit model for a transmission line, we need to understand the
physical mechanisms involved. Here are the mechanisms and their circuit
models:
 if the conductor of TL has finite conductivity, then there is heat loss, equivalent of a series resistor;
 current flowing on both conductors in opposite directions induces magnetic flux density between
the conductors, which can be modeled as an inductance along the line;
 two conductors with finite surface areas and finite separation distance can naturally be modeled as a
capacitor between the conductors; and finally,
 finite conductivity of the dielectric medium between the two conductors (i.e., the loss) would cause
the current to leak through the media, and modeled as a conductance between the conductors.
