Abstract :
This paper extends the time-domain modal analysis for simulating transmission lines to include lossy coupled systems of arbitrary geometries. It provides exact solution for the case where the dielectric medium is homogeneous and an approximate one for the case of an inhomogeneous medium. A numerical example is given, illustrating the accuracy of the proposed method
