Abstract :
Transmission-line modeling, a numerical method for field problems, is presented in simple terms that undergraduate students and nonexperts can understand. The method is shown to be applicable in solving various problems involving the diffusion equation, Poisson´s equation, or the wave equation. A special application of the method is made to wave propagation problems. Numerical examples are provided for waveguide problems in one and two dimensions
