A transmission line consists of two identical thin strips of metal , as shown in cross section in
the sketch. Assuming that a << b, discuss the propagation of a TEM mode on this line,
repeating the derivations of problem 8.2. Show that:

Moreover, since there are no free charges in the dielectric we can write:

The characteristic impedance Z0 of the line is defined as the ratio of the voltage between the
strips and the current flowing in one of them.
