Evaluation of Noise Suppressing Transmission Lines,
Abstract
Modeling the behavior of transmission lines and wave filters and the theory of wave propagation in solids involves extensive study of waves supported by iterative networks or lattice structures. It can be shown that for a given frequency, the iterative circuit diagrammed in Figure 1 supports two models of oscillation. Furthermore, in such a structure where the capacitances vary with the nodal index n, there can be regions where either mode reflects and linearly converts to the other. Figure 2 shows the dispersion relation for a case analogous to what can be encountered in geometrical optics. That is, a case where a slow linear variation in the capacitances has been put into the dispersion relation obtained for a uniform lattice. A thorough analytic treatment of a bimodal LC lattice structure for both uniform and nonuniform cases was carried out. The results aid significantly in clarifying and giving direction to the task of computer evaluations.
