Đà Nẵng - 2010
In this laboratory experiment, you will use SPICE to study sinusoidal waves on
lossless
transmission lines. Our goal is for you to become familiar with the basic
behavior of waves
reflecting from loads in transmission lines, and compare the
simulations with numeric calculations and the Smith Chart.
2.1 Basic Transmission Line Model
There is a standard lossless transmission line model T, which is specified by
several
parameters. We will need to specify two of the parameters:
 Z
0
, the characteristic impedance
 T
D
, the time delay, which is the length of the line in time
units. The length of the line L is related to the time delay through
Lu

T
p D
(2.1)
where u
p
is the phase velocity of waves on the transmission line.
As we saw in lecture and in our text, the phase velocity and characteristic
impedance may be derived from the “lumped element” model of the transmission line.
With L’ the inductance per unit length, and C’ the capacitance per unit length, we have

For common RG-58 coaxial cable, the characteristic impedance is Z
0
= 50 Ω and the
phase velocity u
p
= 2/3 c. (Note: c = speed of light = 3e8 m/s)
Question 1: For such a transmission line, what are the inductance and capacitance per
meter? Answer:
- Transmission line is often schematically represented as a two-wire line, so transmission

lines (TEM wave propagation) always have at least two conductors.
i(z,t)
+
v(z,t)
-
∆z
z
- Inductance per meter ( H/m ) :
+ It is the series inductance per unit length, it appears from the shape of
transmission line. Inductance per meter represents the self-inductance of the two
conductors per a meter, it also represents the stored magnetic energy per a meter of
transmission line.
- Capacitance per meter ( F/m ) :
+ It is the shunt capacitance per unit length, it is due to the close proximity of the
two conductors, it also represents the stored electric energy per a meter of transmission
line.

2.2 A SPICE model of a transmission line problem.
Using SPICE, create a (matched) Thevenin source VAC with 1 Volt amplitude and
50 Ω
source impedance, leading to a transmission line model T, terminated in a 100 Ω load.
Edit the
transmission line so that it has a characteristic impedance of 50 Ω. Also, create labels
Input and
Load at the ends of the transmission lines, so that you can measure the voltages
conveniently.

Use SPICE to simulate the steady state AC response of this transmission line for
length 0,
λ/16, 2λ/16, …, 15λ/16, λ. Center your sweep on the frequency of interest and sweep
linearly.

Figure 2. Illustration of Transmission Line Length Change for Part 2.2
One way to make this easier is to use a parameter for TD. Place the special part
PARAM.
Double click on it and then on New Column… Call it delay and set it to 5ns. Assign
{delay} (with
the curly braces) to TD on the transmission line. When you create your simulation profile,
select
the parametric sweep as an option. Choose Global Parameter with a parameter of delay.
Set
the sweep range and increment based on your TD calculations from above. Under
“General
Settings” set the sweep Range from Start Frequency: 200Meg to End Frequency: 200Meg
and
increment Total Points: 1.

- To examine the change of input voltage as a function of length, we can examine

the
change of input voltage as a function of Time Delay.
We can simulate the input voltage as a function of Time Delay because Time Delay and Length
of transmission line relate together from
the formular :
TD
L
 . With u
p
is a constant, L
u p
increases n-fold as well as T
D
increases n-fold. So, examining the change of the input voltage as
a function of T
D
is like doing this with L (length of transmission line).
- With L = λ, we have :

So, we can establish a parameter in pspice with 0 at start value and 5ns at end
value. In
addition, we examine L at the points which are λ/16-equidistant together.
Therefore, increment in parametric sweep is 0,3125ns like above value (question 5).
