Abstract :
Explicit solutions are presented for the capacitance arising from the electric field distortion caused by one of two step discontinuities bounding a short length of increased or decreased conductor spacing in parallel-plane transmission lines. Values are tabulated of a proximity factor which may be multiplied by the capacitance resulting from the field distortion associated with an isolated step to account for the presence of a second, similar step.
