  • Patent number: 6567955
    Abstract: A lumped constant line approximating system capable of approximating a distributed constant line with required accuracy. The system receives inputs of object circuit information and analysis conditions (Steps 310, 320), calculates a product &ggr;l of the propagation constant &ggr; and the line length l (Step 340), and calculates cosh &ggr;l and sinh &ggr;l by using the product &ggr;l (Step 360) to obtain functions an(&ggr;l), bn(&ggr;l) and cn(&ggr;l). Then, absolute values &dgr;1, &dgr;2 and &dgr;3 of the differences between these functions and cosh &ggr;l or sinh &ggr;l are obtained, and compares the maximum &dgr; among them with an error tolerance &egr;. If &dgr;<&egr;, the processing ends, while if &dgr;<&egr; is not satisfied, the number of division is increased by 1, and the above processing is repeated, until the number n of division for approximation is determined (Step 370).
