METALLIC 2-WIRE PARAMETRIC LINE MODELS - A SURVEY

Patrick Boets, Leo Van Biesen

Abstract

A survey of frequency domain models to describe cables of the access network of operators is presented. The cable characteristics of some commercial cables are measured and the parameters of the used models identified. From this, the properties and application areas of physical models as well as rational functions are discussed. It will be demonstrated and explained why some frequently used cable models show an unrealistic impulse behavior.
