Abstract
Transmission of energy from point to point can be accomplished in one of two ways. One is by propagation of fields through free space or through a space filled with some medium. This is the case, for example, of transmission by antennas. The second, one that we will discuss here, is the propagation of energy through a defined structure that physically connects the generator and the load. This is the general definition of a transmission line. We will view the transmission line, the generator, and the load in general terms. For example, a transmission line can be a dielectric slab or two wires, while the generator is a general source -either a true generator or the output from another transmission line.
