Transmission LinesTransmission Lines
• Used for guiding electromagnetic (EM) waves
• Point-to-point “guided” transmission of power and information from “source” to “receiver”, e.g., data signal. (unguided=antenna)
• Transverse EM (TEM) waves applied to most transmission lines except waveguides.
• TEM waves -> uniform plane waves

Transmission LinesTransmission Lines
Two fundamental types
• Low Frequency
– used for power transmission
• High Frequency
– used for RF transmission
“wavelengths are shorter than or
comparable to the length of cable”
Note - transmission line = conductor - but only use “surface”

Parallel Line Parallel Line ((akaaka Ribbon Cable)Ribbon Cable)
• Simple Construction
• Used primarily for power lines, rural telephone lines or TV antenna cable
• Freq up to 200MHz over short distances
• High Radiation Loss
– moving current = Ae
– need to be aware of other metallic conductors

Twisted PairTwisted Pair
• Twists tend to cancel radiation loss
• Helps reduce crosstalk
• Still fairly inexpensive
• Frequency < 100MHz
• Generally short distances
– analog ~5-6 km
– digital ~2-3 km
• Note - power line interference

Coaxial CableCoaxial Cable
• Geometry creates a “shielded” system
– no EM energy outside the cable
• Can support frequencies > 100MHz
• Can support data rates > 1GHz
• Low self-inductance allows greater BW
• Used for long-distance telephone trunks, urban networks, TV cables
• Expensive + must keep dielectric dry

• Current and Voltage change with time along the line (the signal)
– superposition of waves in both directions
– but over short distances (<λ) are constant
• Energy is lost (heat - resistance) or stored (magnetic - inductance) / (capacitive - capacitance)

Key point about transmission line Key point about transmission line
operationoperation
The major deviation from circuit theory with transmission line, distributed networks is this positional dependence of voltage and current!
– Must think in terms of position and time to understand transmission line behavior
– This positional dependence is added when the assumption of the size of the circuit being small compared to the signaling wavelength

Transmission Line ModelTransmission Line Model
• Distributed circuit concept
R is the resistance in both conductors per unit length in W /m
L is the inductance in both conductors per unit length in H/m
G is the conductance of the dielectric media per unit length in S/m
C is the capacitance between the conductors per unit length in F/m

In an infinitely long line there are only forward travelling waves and
no reflected waves. The second term in (7) and (8) will be zero.
This is however also true for a line terminated with its characteristic
impedance. A line is called a matched line when the load impedance
is equal to the characteristic impedance. If we consider a line with
the characteristic impedance Z0, a propagation constant γ and with
the length l terminated with a load impedance ZL connected to
a sinusoidal voltage source, and then the voltage and current
distribution on the line can be calculated as:

History of Fiber opticsHistory of Fiber optics
• During 1930, other ideas were developed with this fiber optic such as transmitting images through a fiber.
• During the 1960s, Lasers were introduced as efficient light sources• In 1970s All glass fibers experienced excessive optical loss, the loss
of the light signal as it traveled the fiber limiting transmission distance.
• This motivated the scientists to develop glass fibers that include a separating glass coating. The innermost region was used to transmit the light, while the glass coating prevented the light from leaking out of the core by reflecting the light within the boundaries of the core.
• Today, you can find fiber optics used in variety of applications such as medical environment to the broadcasting industry. It is used to transmit voice, television, images and data signals through small flexible threads of glass or plastic.

• A basic fiber optic communications system consists of three basic elements:
– Fiber media
– Light sources
– Light detector

Disadvantage of fiber optic over Disadvantage of fiber optic over
copper wire cablecopper wire cable
• Optical fiber is more expensive per meter than copper
• Optical fiber can not be join together as easily as copper cable. It requires training and expensive splicing and measurement equipment.
