6. Low power output. High power output.
9. Name thefactors used for selecting a matching network.
The factors used for the selection of matching networks are,
(i) Complexity,
(ii)) Bandwidth requirement,
(iii) Adjustability, and
(iv) Ease of tunability.
10. Whatis stubmatching?
By choosing aproper length of open circuit and short circuit lines any value
of reactance can be obtained. The short circuited sections of transmission lines.
when used as reactive elements for impedance matching. It is referred as stub
matching.
From fabrication point of View parallel stubs are preferred. These parallel
stubs are usually short circuited stubs.
1R What is meant by microwave resonators?
Microwave resonators are tunable circuits which are used in microwave
oscillators, amplifiers, wavemeters and filters.
At the tuned frequency the circuit resonates where the average energies
stored in an electric field (or in the capacitor), We and magnetic field (or in the
inductor),Wm are equal and the circuit impedance beconmes purely real.
