Equivalent Circuits for Discontinuities in Transmission Lines

Abstract
Exact equivalent circuits for several types of discontinuities in parallel-plane transmission lines are obtained by Hahn's method of matching electromagnetic-wave solutions. Values of lumped elements to be used in these are given in curve form, with rules for using results in the corresponding coaxial-line problems. Experimental checks are reported, which verify results of the calculations and stress the importance of the discontinuity capacitances appearing in the equivalent circuits.
