Numerical method for transient responses of linear networks with lumped

Abstract Transient responses of linear networks with distributed or mixed lumped-distributed elements are difficult to evaluate because of the infinite number of poles. The method presented here is easily applicable for any kind of transfer function, including feedback systems, and does not require the knowledge of the poles of the function under consideration. It can be used for the evaluation of responses of lumped-element networks. Errors of the results can be estimated by using two successive numerical approximations.
