Transmission line modeling simulation with PSpice ASEE conference 2007
Transmission Lines Demonstration High Frequency Electronics Course EE527 Andrew Rusek Oakland University Winter 2007 Demonstration is based on the materials collected from measurement set up to show sinusoidal and step responses of a transmission line with various terminations. Results of selected simulations are included.
