Solution

To calculate the primary constants of the transmission line, we can use the given information about the characteristic impedance, attenuation constant, and phase shift.

Step 1: Convert the attenuation constant from nepers to decibels.

  • Attenuation constant in decibels = 8.686 * attenuation constant in nepers
  • Attenuation constant in decibels = 8.686 * 0.01 = 0.08686 dB

Step 2: Calculate the attenuation constant per unit length.

  • Attenuation constant per unit length = Attenuation constant in decibels / 10
  • Attenuation constant per unit length = 0.08686 dB / 10 = 0.008686 dB/km

Step 3: Calculate the phase constant per unit length.

  • Phase constant per unit length = Phase shift / length
  • Phase constant per unit length = 0.035 radian/km

Step 4: Calculate the primary constants.

  • Primary constants = sqrt((attenuation constant per unit length)^2 + (phase constant per unit length)^2)
  • Primary constants = sqrt((0.008686 dB/km)^2 + (0.035 radian/km)^2)

After performing the calculations, you will obtain the primary constants of the transmission line.
