Abstract
Based on the transmission line approximation, three different equivalent formulations have been proposed for evaluating the interaction between an external electromagnetic field and a transmission line, The difference among these "coupling" formulations, which are summarized for the case of a lossless line, lies essentially in the representation of the source terms as a function of the external electromagnetic field components. The authors show that the contribution of a given electromagnetic field component is different depending on the particular adopted formulation, To show that, the three formulations are employed to calculate the voltages induced on an overhead line by a nearby lightning strike, and the contribution to the induced voltage of the various electromagnetic field components explicitly appearing in each formulation is emphasized. The authors conclude that it is misleading to speak about the contribution of a given electromagnetic field component to the total induced voltages without first specifying the coupling formulation one is using.

Transient analysis of multiconductor lines above a lossy ground

TL;DR: In this article, the Sunde logarithmic approximation for the single-wire line ground impedance was extended to the case of a multiconductor line, where the inverse Fourier transform of the ground impedance presents singularities which complicate the numerical solution of the transmission line equations.

Formulation of the field-to-transmission line coupling equations in terms of magnetic excitation field

TL;DR: In this paper, an equivalent formulation is derived in which the source terms (or forcing functions) are expressed in terms of the magnetic excitation field, which is particularly useful for evaluating field-to-transmission-line coupling when the exciting field is determined experimentally, since only the measurement of the electric field is necessary.
