Abstract
A complete transmission line model including skin effect is derived to show the effects of conductor skin loss on the attenuation and phase factors. The frequency-dependent behavior of a microstrip line is included in the model. Distortions of a short pulse due to the skin effect, including attenuation dispersion, and propagation delay, are investigated. Simulation results indicate that the skin effect cannot be neglected in the phase factor in low-conductivity transmission lines.<>
