NAME
ngmultidec - make ngpice sub-circuit for coupled transmission lines
SYNOPSIS
ngmultidec [ options... ]
DESCRIPTION
ngmultidec writes an ngspice input file to standard output which describes a sub-circuit
for coupled lines using uncoupled simple lossy lines.
Each generated subcircuit models a 4-conductor transmission line with the following
parameters: length l, line capacitance c, line resistance r, line conductance g,
inductive_coeff_of_coupling k, inter-line capacitance cm, length l. Derived parameters
are: lm, ctot. The values of l, c, the model name, the number of conductors and the
length of the line must be specified.
It is important to note that the model is a simplified one - the following assumptions are
made: 1. The self-inductance l, the self-capacitance ctot (note: not c), the series
resistance r and the parallel capacitance g are the same for all lines, and 2. Each line
is coupled only to the two lines adjacent to it, with the same coupling parameters cm and
lm. The first assumption implies that edge effects have to be neglected. The utility of
these assumptions is that they make the sL+R and sC+G matrices symmetric, tridiagonal and
Toeplitz, with useful consequences (see the paper referenced below).
It may be noted that a symmetric two-conductor line is represented accurately by this
model.
Standard C language scientific (exponent) notation may be used for options' numeric
values.
