Power cable modeling for PD pulse propagation and sensitivity

In this paper a model is presented, which can determine the PD pulse propagation in power cable systems by considering the change of pulse shape and amplitude. The pulse shape changes due to frequency dependent attenuation and dispersion in the cable. All these parameters are dependent on e.g. the length of the system and material of the insulation. The model is able to handle arbitrary kinds of pulses, which are measured in the time domain.
