Abstract

This paper presents a new scheme for generating numerical meshes for computing the frequency-dependent resistance and inductance of transmission lines with rectangular cross-sections. The proposed mesh conforms to frequency-dependent spatial distribution of current. The method ensures accurate numerical solutions with relatively small numbers of mesh elements. The numerical results and the efficiency of our method are compared with those of FastHenry
