LITERAL SOLUTIONS FOR THE TIME-DOMAIN RESPONSE OF A 2-CONDUCTOR TRANSMISSION-LINE EXCITED BY AN INCIDENT ELECTROMAGNETIC-FIELD

Analytical solutions of the transmission line equations for a lossless, two-conductor transmission line,vith incident electromagnetic field illumination are obtained, The equations for the terminal voltages are in terms of symbols, rather than numerical values. This form of the solution gives insight into the various factors that contribute to the overall, time-domain response waveshape that would be obscured in a numerical solution, The results are specialized to uniform plane wave illumination and to electrically short lines.
