Abstrakt: Research is carried out on the basis of the traditional two-end matched circuit of a capacitive voltage divider with a long measurement cable. Transmission progress in the circuit is analyzed theoretically. A match condition of the circuit is acquired, which requires that the circuit satisfies two conditions: (1) the measurement error should be small for a pulse with a duration of less than twice the delay time of the measurement cable; (2) the initial division ratio and the stable division ratio of the circuit are the same. Two matched methods of the circuit are acquired, including the first-order matched method and the second-order matched method. Numerical simulations are carried out. According to the simulation results, the relative errors of the circuits with a cable of 20 m are less than 1.5%, obtained by using both match methods for measurement of rectangular pulses with rise and fall times of 5 ns. An improved circuit is presented, which is suitable for any situation where the low-voltage capacitance of the capacitive divider is even smaller than the capaictance of the measurement cable. A verification experment is carried out, and the test result confirms the simulation result. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
