  • Abstract
    The initial transient response of straight wires connected to coaxial lines is studied theoretically for the case where a pulse is applied to the coaxial line. The wave form of the return pulse is first found approximately for the case of a pulse of zero rise time. Since this does not correspond to any feasible experimental situation, the effect of a finite rise time is considered in detail. Numerical results are obtained for several special cases.
