User's manual for the NLINE multiconductor transmission-line computer code. Technical report

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:7290502

This manual describes applications of the multiconductor transmission-line computer program, NLINE. The program computes the voltages and currents induced by an incident plane electro-magnetic wave on the conductors or in the loads of a lossless transmission line made up of 11 conductors or less. The solution is provided both in the frequency and time domains. The program accepts arbitrary angles of incidence, transmission-line length, and resistive terminations. The Thevenin equivalent lumped-parameter method is described for use of NLINE with non-linear loads. Computational agreement with experimental data is demonstrated. A complete FORTRAN program listing is included. (Author)
