✦ Synopsis
This paper presents a detailed analysis and discussion of the conditions on which the realizability of modal circuit decomposition for lossy homogeneous quasi-TEM coupled transmission lines stands. It is shown that the requirement of a real nonsingular modal transformation matrix cannot always be met. With the exception of some limit ( ) situations lossless conductors or ¨ery high-frequency operation , equi¨alent modal circuits can only be obtained, in general, for transmission-line configurations exhibiting ¨ery peculiar symmetry properties.
