Time domain analysis of commensurate distributed-line networks

The Laplace-transform technique is utilized to obtain exact time-domain solutions in closed form for commensurate distributed-line networks when their transfer or return functions in the complex Richards variable are known. Extensive tables for transform pairs, and general relations as well, are given. The case with an additional irrational factor of the transfer function is also studied. Some illustrating examples of how to apply the transform technique are provided.
