The total inductance was calculated in (5-20):
L total
= L internal
+ L external
(5-20)
indicating that the series impedance contribution from the inductance is
simply jω(L internal
+ L external ) . To calculate the total series impedance of a
transmission-line segment, the resistive component is added:
= R ac
+ jω(L internal
+ L external )
Z series
= R ac
+ jωL total
ohms
(5-68)
leading to the equivalent circuit for a transmission line with a conductor of finite
conductivity, as shown in Figure 5-27, where N s is the number of segments,
C z = z C and L z = z L total , as calculated in Section 3.2.3, and R z =
z R ac , where z is the length of the differential section of transmission line
and C ,
L total , and R ac are the capacitance, inductance, and resistance per unit
length.
The characteristic impedance, which was defined in equation (3-33), can be
calculated by dividing the series impedance as defined by (5-68) by the parallel
admittance of the capacitance, Y shunt
= jωC , for a short section of transmission
line of length z .
