  2. Coaxial Line: TEM Mode y To find the TEM mode fields We need to solve b a z x Zero volt potential reference location (0 = b).

  3. Coaxial Line: TEM Mode (cont.) y Hence b a Thus, z x

  4. Coaxial Line: TEM Mode (cont.) y b a z x Hence Note: This does not account for conductor loss.

  5. Coaxial Line: TEM Mode (cont.) y Attenuation: b a Dielectric attenuation: z x Conductor attenuation: (We remove all loss from the dielectric in Z0lossless.)

  7. Coaxial Line: TEM Mode (cont.) Conductor attenuation: y b a z x Hence we have or

  8. Coaxial Line: TEM Mode (cont.) y Let’s redo the calculation of conductor attenuation using the Wheeler incremental inductance formula. b Wheeler’s formula: a z x The formula is applied for each conductor and the conductor attenuation from each of the two conductors is then added. In this formula, dl (for a given conductor) is the distance by which the conducting boundary is receded away from the field region.

  10. Coaxial Line: TEM Mode (cont.) y We can also calculate the fundamental per-unit-length parameters of the coaxial line. b a From previous calculations: z x (Formulas from Notes 1) where (Derived as a homework problem)

  11. Coaxial Line: Higher-Order Modes y We look at the higher-order modes of a coaxial line. b The lowest mode is the TE11 mode. a y z x x Sketch of field lines for TE11 mode

  12. Coaxial Line: Higher-Order Modes (cont.) y We look at the higher-order modes of a coaxial line. b TEz: a z x The solution in cylindrical coordinates is: Note: The value n must be an integer to have unique fields.

  15. Coaxial Line: Higher-Order Modes (cont.) y We choose (somewhat arbitrarily) the cosine function for the angle variation. b Wave traveling in +z direction: a z x The cosine choice corresponds to having the transverse electric field E being an even function of, which is the field that would be excited by a probe located at  = 0.

  17. Coaxial Line: Higher-Order Modes (cont.) y b a In order for this homogenous system of equations for the unknowns A and B to have a non-trivial solution, we require the determinant to be zero. z x Hence
