It is used whenever there are no analytical +formula known, yet you still require an answer. It can calculate: + + The impedance Zo (in Ohms) + The capacitance per unit length (pF/m) + The inductance per unit length (nF/m) + The velocity of propogation v (m/s) + The velocity factor, v/c, which is dimensionless. + +A bitmap file (usually with the extension .bmp or .BMP) of the cross +section of the transmission line is drawn in a graphics package such +as The Gimp and then analyzed using Atlc. |
