  • Abstract
    This paper presents an improved method of computing the Z -matrix parameters of 2-port tapered transmission lines. Linear second-order differential equations, in which the tapering information is contained in one variable coefficient, are derived for the transfer immittances; from the solutions of these the driving point impedances are found by differentiation and algebraic substitution techniques. As an example, the Z -matrix parameters for Jacobs\´ "generalized exponential" line are found.
