A New Approach To Signal Reflections Analysis On PCB Transmission Lines Terminated On Nonlinear Impedances
Journal Title: Acta Technica Napocensis- Electronica-Telecomunicatii (Electronics and Telecommunications) - Year 2013, Vol 54, Issue 2
Abstract
A novel approach for analyzing signal reflections on transmission lines terminated on non-linear impedances is presented. The starting point of this new method is the Bergeron diagram method. The results obtained by the well-known method are used as input data for the new approach. This new method is implemented in MatLab and is suitable for both linear and non-linear impedances, and also for driving signals having rise/fall times of any value. This is the novelty of this approach compared to the Bergeron method which is valid only for fast command signals. The results are compared and they show good agreement with the ones obtained by experimental measurements performed with a high-performance digital oscilloscope.
