Abstract
All derivations of the one-dimensional telegrapher's equation, based o n the persistent random walk model, assume a constant speed of signal propagation. We generalize here the model to allow for a variable prop agation speed and study several limiting cases in detail. We also show the connections of this model with anomalous diffusion behavior and w ith inertial dichotomous processes.
