Transient Modeling of a Coaxial Cable

Application ID: 12349


Simulation of Maxwell’s equations in the time domain is useful if the objective of the analysis is to observe a transient phenomenon, to find the time it takes a signal to propagate, or if the materials being modeled are non-linear with respect to the electric or magnetic field strength. This model simulates a pulse propagating down a coaxial transmission line and observes the time it takes for the signal to propagate.

This model example illustrates applications of this type that would nominally be built using the following products:
