where p = σ + j ω is the usual complex frequency variable, and l/vp is the ratio of
the length of the basic commensurate transmission-line element to the phase velocity
of the wave in such a line element. t is a new complex frequency variable, also
known as Richards’ variable. The new complex plane, where t is defined, is called

Assuming that the phase velocity vp is independent of frequency, which is true for
TEM transmission lines, the electrical length is then proportional to frequency and

This line element is referred to as a unit element, hereafter as UE, and its symbol
is illustrated in Figure 3.25. It is interesting to note that the unit element has a half-
order transmission zero at t = ±1. Unit elements are usually employed to separate the
circuit elements in distributed filters that are otherwise located at the same physical
point. We will demonstrate later (see Chapter 6) that unit element can be used in the
filter design either as redundant or nonredundant elements. The former do not have
any effect on the filter selectivity, but the latter can improve it.

network in filter designs. Figure 3.27 illustrates some typical networks of this type
with their equivalent circuits in the t-plane. These equivalent circuits may be derived
from the general coupled-line network in Figure 3.28 by utilizing its general four-port
voltage-current relationships:
⎡ ⎤ ⎡ ⎤
I1 √ V1
⎢ I2 ⎥ vp [C] − 1 − t 2 [C] ⎢ V2 ⎥
⎢ ⎥= √ ·⎢ ⎥ (3.56)
⎣ I3 ⎦ t − 1 − t 2 [C] [C] ⎣ V3 ⎦
I4 V4
where Ik are the port currents, as indicated, and Vk are the port voltages with respect
to a common ground (not shown).
C11 −C12
[C] =
−C12 C22
C11 and C22 are the self-capacitance per unit length of lines 1 and 2, respectively,
and C12 is the mutual capacitance per unit length. Note that C11 = C22 if the coupled
lines are symmetrical.
Alternatively, the formulation with the impedance matrix may be used. This gives
⎡ ⎤ ⎡ ⎤
V1 √ I1
⎢ V2 ⎥ vp [L] 1 − t 2 [L] ⎢ I2 ⎥
⎢ ⎥= √ ·⎢ ⎥ (3.57)
⎣ V3 ⎦ t 1 − t 2 [L] [L] ⎣ I3 ⎦

where
L11 L12
[L] =
L12 L22
In this case, L11 and L22 are the self-inductance per unit length of lines 1 and 2,
respectively, and L12 is the mutual inductance per unit length. If the coupled lines are
symmetrical, then L11 = L22 . It may be remarked that [L] and [C] together satisfy
[L] · [C] = [C] · [L] = [U ] vp2 (3.58)
