MengECE D512 Problem Set 2

This document provides the instructions and problems for Problem Set 2 on radio wave propagation and antenna systems. There are two main problems involving transmission lines with different parameters. Problem 1 involves a DC voltage source and examines the voltage over time and space on the transmission line. Problem 2 involves an AC voltage source and asks the student to draw voltage graphs over time and space and determine maximum and minimum voltage amplitudes. The student is to complete the problem set individually and submit solutions by the next class meeting.
