6.4 Low Frequency Behaviorvia Quasistatics

(EEE, Sec. 5.5; FEME, Sec. 6.4)

6-68

Quasistatic Fields

For quasistatic fields, certain features can be analyzed as though the fields were static. In terms of behavior in the frequency domain, they are low-frequency extensions of static fields present in a physical structure, when the frequency of the source driving the structure is zero, or low-frequency approximations of time-varyingfields in the structure that are complete solutions to Maxwell’s equations. Here, we use the approach of low-frequency extensions of static fields. Thus, for a given structure, we begin with a time-varying field having the same spatial characteristics as that of the static field solution for the structure and obtain field solutions containing terms up to and including the first power (which is thelowest power) in for their amplitudes.

6.5 Condition for the validity ofthe quasistatic approximation (EEE, Sec. 5.5; FEME, Secs. 6.5, 7.1)

6-87

We have seen that quasistatic field analysis of a physical structure provides information concerning the low-frequency input behaviorof the structure. As the frequency is increased beyond that for which the quasistatic approximation is valid, terms in the infinite series solutions for the fields beyond the first-order terms need to be included. While one can obtain equivalent circuits for frequencies beyond the range of validity of the quasistatic approximation by evaluating the higher order terms, we shall here obtain the exact solution by resorting to simultaneous solution of Maxwell’s equations to find the condition for the validity of thequasistatic approximation, and further investigate the behavior for frequencies beyond the quasistatic approximation. We shall do this by considering the parallel-plate structure, and obtaining the wavesolutions, which will then lead us to the distributed circuit concept and the transmission-line.

Complete Standing Waves

Complete standing waves are characterized by pure half-sinusoidal variations for the amplitudes of the fields. For values of z at which the electric field amplitude is a maximum, the magnetic field amplitude is zero, and for values of z at which the electric field amplitude is zero, the magnetic field amplitude is a maximum. The fields are also out of phase in time, such that at any value of z, the magnetic field and the electric field differ in phase by t = / 2.

Condition for the Validity of the Quasistatic ApproximationThe condition l << 1 dictates the range of validity for the quasistatic approximation for the input behavior of the structure. In terms of the frequency f of the source, this condition means that f << vp/2l, or in terms of the period

T = 1/f, it means that T >> 2(l/vp). Thus, quasistatic fields are low-frequency

approximations of time-varying fields that are complete solutions to Maxwell’s equations, which represent wave propagation phenomena and can be approximated to the quasistatic character only when the times of interest are much greater than the propagation time, l/vp, corresponding to the length of the

structure. In terms of space variations of the fields at a fixed time, the wavelength ( = 2 ), which is the distance between two consecutive points along the direction of propagation between which the phase difference is 2, must be such that l << /2 ; thus, the physical length of the structure must be a small fraction of the wavelength.
