Transient responses of distributed amplifiers using the m-derived filter sections

The analytic expressions of the unit-impulse and the unit-step responses of distributed amplifiers using the m -derived filter sections with unstaggered and staggered lines are derived. The equations have been computed by means of an IBM System 360 Model 44 digital computer. The graphical results are presented for one through ten sections per amplifier stage. These curves are normalized with respect to both amplitude and time, and may be applied to specific situations by rescaling the axes.
