Analytical polarization and coherence transfer functions are presented for a spin system consisting of three dipolar coupled homonuclear spins 12 under energy matched conditions. Based on these transfer functions, optimal durations of Hartmann-Hahn mixing periods can be determined for arbitrary dipolar coupling constants D(12), D(13), and D(23). In addition, the dependence of the transfer efficiency on the relative size of the dipolar coupling constants is illustrated.
