  • Abstract
    We have developed a method for the numerical solution of the system of hyperbolic equations that arise from the study of signal propagation on a three-wire transmission line. This method solves the characteristic form of the equations by using a distinct spatial grid for each traveling wave. The resulting computer code produces calculations that are virtually free of numerical dispersion.
