Abstract :
The transient response of a lossless transmission line of finite length excited externally by an electromagnetic wave of an arbitrary waveform is studied. By using the Laplace transformation, a solution of the transient current is obtained as a series of analytical functions. Inspection of the solution leads to the conclusion that the response currents at terminals of the line can be equivalently expressed by the components induced at both terminals, and, in addition, the multireflected wave when the line is mismatched. Furthermore, a new equivalent circuit for the coupling phenomenon is discussed
