Abstract :
It is shown that an arbitrary nonuniform transmission line may be approximated by a cascade of commensurate uniform lines. In general, a small number of lines is sufficient to obtain a good approximation, and hence the method should prove useful, both in the analysis of arbitrarily tapered lines and in the study of their properties.
