Calculation of pulse propagation in coaxial cables with multi-layered insulation system

In this paper a simple and efficient method for the calculation of multi-layered coaxial cables is proposed. The parameters of an equivalent transmission line are calculated. These calculations are compared with FDTD results and measurements, and show a good agreement. The developed approach is especially suitable for fast and easy calculation of the propagation characteristics of multi-layered coaxial cables with high permittivity and conductivity, where other methods are less efficient.
