Summary
Time domain measurements taken on an automatic network analyzer can be easily replicated theoretically for dispersionless transmission lines using the SPICE time domain program simulation. A technique is presented here that gives the type, value, and position of the measured discontinuity directly from time domain measurements. Furthermore the effect of multiple discontinuities can be replicated by SPICE.
