Abstract

This article describes the use of a special transmission line software which is being integrated in our four year electronics program in the school of technology. The paper discusses time and frequency domain analysis of microwave transmission lines under different termination. It is shown that this software is an excellent aid in teaching transmission line concepts to technology students. The software under consideration is for dissipationless and dispersionless T-lines but it can be used for lumped, distributed, or microstrip transmission lines. The article is prepared for general audience
