UPPER AND LOWER BOUNDS TO THE CHARACTERISTIC IMPEDANCE OF TRANSMISSION LINES USING THE FINITE‐ELEMENT METHOD Available to Purchase

This paper describes a technique for computing characteristic impedance and capacitance of transmission lines using the finite‐element method, which guarantees both upper and lower bounds to the exact solution without any additional programming beyond that required for the initial problem description. The paper also attempts to simplify the essential steps of pre‐processing of data while maintaining flexibility of the method.
