Abstract :
The Volterra series is used for the transient analysis of linear lumped elements in lossy coupled transmission lines with mildly nonlinear terminations. This method is also applied to modeling wavefronts of electrical signals representing blood pressure and flow in human arterial systems which has been modeled as a very nonlinear transmission line. PSPICE software is used to simulate the transient behaviour of the system
