On the numerical computation of cylindrical conductor internal impedance for complex arguments of large magnitude

Abstract

This paper presents a numerical algorithm for computation of per-unit-length internal impedance of cylindrical conductors under com- plex arguments of large magnitude. The proposed model either solves the scaled exact formula for internal impedance or employs asymptotic approximations of modified Bessel functions when applicable. The formulas presented are applicable for solid cylindri-cal conductors as well as tubular cylindrical conductors.
