Thank you Doug Brooks, So, For a given FIXED condition of two T Lines having a parallel running length of about 1" lets say, of total 6" each. then for a single data transition, say low to high, 0 to1, then at the receiver end of victim line, f/w cross talk is seen as a growing (to a finite value) pulse of fixed period, as it traverses down the victim line, passing through aggressor-victim parallel lengths. (assuming capacitive f/w x_talk dominates) at the driver end of victim line, b/w cross talk is seen as pulse of fixed amplitude (depends on parallel length) with its duration growing till it becomes 2 x length of aggressor line.
