Key Features

• Transmission lines are used to transfer electrical energy and signals over long distances.
• They are characterized by parameters such as resistance, inductance, capacitance, and conductance.
• Electromagnetic fields (EMFs) govern how energy propagates along transmission lines.
• The voltage and current distribution along the line are described by transmission line equations.
• Characteristic impedance is a key factor for efficient power transfer and matching.
  Reflection and standing waves occur when there is impedance mismatch.
  The propagation constant determines signal attenuation and phase shift.
  Electromagnetic fields around transmission lines are explained using Maxwell’s equations.
  High-frequency signals require careful design to minimize loss and distortion.
