IMPROVED TLM LINK MODEL FOR REACTIVE CIRCUIT COMPONENTS

An improved transmission line modelling (TLM) link model for reactive circuit components is presented. This improved model reduces the propa gation delay error in the conventional TLM link model. Consequently th e improved model provides significant improvement in accuracy over the conventional link model. Simulation confirms that results obtained fr om the improved link model are much more accurate than those from the conventional link model. The simulation results also indicate that the improved link model is as accurate as the stub model.
