The solution of circuits subjected to traveling waves

THE EFFECT of traveling waves upon terminal apparatus usually is most easily solved by means of Heaviside´s operational calculus. Solutions have been given previously for various combinations of impedances that may be encountered in service, by considering such impedances to be contained in simple circuits. These are intended to approximate the general conditions of a transmission system. However, a purely mathematical analysis of such an involved nature often is looked upon skeptically and experimental variation of such calculation therefore is valuable.
