Hi, I took a closer look onto the sparam_1.mdl and there are two things which are not completely clear to me. Gs=b1/a1, Gl=b2/a2 are both 0.5 in the *.mdl file, but in reality that should be also a function because the coefficients depending on the frequency, right? The second is, how do I feed the a1 part, because I want to embed it into a circuit simulation (I don't understand the Base band fcn block in the mdl-file)

Hope to get an answer.

See you,

Excellent job Dick.
When you disconnect the load and let the line open-circuit you can even observe the well known phenomea of bouncing back wave: http://www.allaboutcircuits.com/vol_2/chpt_14/4.html

Be careful ! The varactor is badly modelling.
The transient don't fit with the behaviour of a varactor. To check the problem, please try to charge the cap through a resistor and calculate the energie provided by the source. You don't obtain E=CxV2 (true relationship with varactor). Something wrong.
Now, try to put the integrator block outside the feedback. It works, but limited by the solver (if the order of function is greater than 1).
