  11. The Smith Chart ELCT564

  12. The Smith Chart: Resistance Circle If Zo is 50 Ohm, indicate the position of 10, 25, 50 and 250 Ohm in the plot If Zo is 100 Ohm, indicate the position of 10, 25, 50 and 250 Ohm in the plot ELCT564

  13. The Smith Chart: Reactance Curves If Zo is 50 Ohm, indicate the position of j50, j10, -j25 in the plot ELCT564

  14. The Smith Chart If Zo is 50 Ohm, indicate the position of 25+j50, 50+j100, 10-j25 in the plot ELCT564

  15. The Smith Chart: SWR Circles ELCT564

  16. The Smith Chart: Example 1 Suppose we have a transmission line with a characteristic impedance of 50Ω and an electrical length of 0.3λ. The line is terminated with an impedance having a resistive component of 25Ω and an inductive reactance of 25Ω. What is the input impedance to the line? • Basic Steps using Smith Chart: • Normalize and plot a line input/load impedance and construct a constant SWR circle • Apply the line length to the wavelengths scales • Read normalized load/input impedance, and convert to impedance in ohms ELCT564

  17. The Smith Chart: Example 2 Suppose we have a measured input impedance to a 50Ω of 70-j25 Ω. The line is 2.35λ long, and is terminated in an antenna. What is the antenna feed impedance? ELCT564

  18. The Slotted Line • The following two step procedure has been carried out with a 50 Ω coaxial slotted line to determine an unknown load impedance: • A short circuit is placed at the load plane, resulting in a standing wave on the line with infinite SWR, and sharply defined voltage minima recorded at z=0.2 cm, 2.2cm, 4.2cm • The short circuit is removed, and replaced with the unknown load. The SWR is measured as 1.5, and voltage minima are recorded at z=0.72cm, 2.72cm, 4.72cm. • Find the load impedance. ELCT564

  19. The Quarter-Wave Transformer Consider a load resistance RL=100Ω to be matched to a 50Ω line with a quarter-wave transformer. Find the characteristic impedance of the matching line section and plot the magnitude of the reflection coefficient versus normalized frequency, f/fo, where fo is the frequency at which the line is λ/4 long.

  26. Lossy Transmission Line The low-loss line ELCT564

  27. The Distorionless Line When the phase term is not a linear function of frequency, the various frequency components of a wideband signal will travel with different phase velocities and arrive the receiver end of the transmission line at slight different times. This will lead to dispersion. Distortionless line ELCT564
