Problem 2.27 At an operating frequency of 300 MHz, a lossless 50-Ω air-spaced
transmission line 2.5 m in length is terminated with an impedance ZL = (40+ j20) Ω.
Find the input impedance.
Solution: Given a lossless transmission line, Z0 = 50 Ω, f = 300 MHz, l = 2 5 m,
and ZL = (40 + j20) Ω. Since the line is air filled, up = c and therefore, from
Eq. (2.48),

Problem 2.66 A 200-Ω transmission line is to be matched to a computer terminal
with ZL = (50 − j25) Ω by inserting an appropriate reactance in parallel with the
line. If f = 800 MHz and εr = 4, determine the location nearest to the load at which
inserting:
(a) A capacitor can achieve the required matching, and the value of the capacitor.
(b) An inductor can achieve the required matching, and the value of the inductor.
Solution:
(a) After entering the specified values for ZL and Z0 into Module 2.6, we have zL
represented by the red dot in Fig. P2.66(a), and yL represented by the blue dot. By
moving the cursor a distance d = 0 93λ , the blue dot arrives at the intersection point
between the SWR circle and the S = 1 circle. At that point
y(d) = 1 26126 − j1 402026
To cancel the imaginary part, we need to add a reactive element whose admittance is
positive, such as a capacitor. That is:
ω C = (1 4206) × Y0

(b) Repeating the procedure for the second intersection point [Fig. P2.66(b)] leads
to
y(d) = 1 000001 + j1 520691
at d2 = 0 47806λ .
To cancel the imaginary part, we add an inductor in parallel such that

Problem 2.31 A voltage generator with

(a) Γ at the load.
(b) Zin at the input to the transmission line.
(c) The input voltage Vei and input current I˜i .
(d) The quantities in (a)–(c) using CD Modules 2.4 or 2.5.

ZL + Z0 (100 − j100) + 50

(b) All formulae for Zin require knowledge of β = ω p . Since the line is an
air line, up = c, and from the expression for vg (t) we conclude ω = 2π × 109 rad/s.

Problem 2.39 A 75-Ω resistive load is preceded by a λ section of a 50-Ω lossless
line, which itself is preceded by another λ section of a 100-Ω line. What is the
input impedance? Compare your result with that obtained through two successive
applications of CD Module 2.5.

impedances in parallel, whose combination is 75 = 37 5 Ω. Line 1 is λ long.

The normalized load impedance is:
zL =

= 0 33
75
(point A on Smith chart)
The Smith chart shows A and the SWR circle. The goal is to have an equivalent
impedance of 75 Ω to the left of B. That equivalent impedance is the parallel
combination of Zin at B (to the right of the shunt impedance Z) and the shunt
element Z. Since we need for this to be purely real, it’s best to choose l such that
Zin is purely real, thereby choosing Z to be simply a resistor. Adding two resistors in
parallel generates a sum smaller in magnitude than either one of them. So we need
for Zin to be larger than Z0 , not smaller. On the Smith chart, that point is B, at a
distance l = λ from the load. At that point:
zin = 3
which corresponds to
yin = 0 33
Hence, we need y, the normalized admittance corresponding to the shunt
impedance Z, to have a value that satisfies:
yin + y = 1
y = 1 − yin = 1 − 0 33 = 0 66
