Impedance matching and Tuning

Quiz 4
A plane wavefront defined as E = E cos ( 2.53 10 is shown to be progressively distributed across a lossless propagation medium which takes into account spherical wave surface.
y 0 25

t 76. 5z

Define plane wavefront. Establish the requirement in order to realize spherical waves. Determine propagation constant. Calculate the characterized wave impedance. Apply Maxwells equations to determine electric current density of the wave.

Assignment 2
In a hilly terrain, a mobile is located accordingly as shown in the following figure. Assume that the ground reflection is characterized by a reflection index =0.5 and a phase shift = . The carrier frequency is 300 MHz. Compare the amplitude of the received field vector with the corresponding field vector in free space.

Impedance Matching
SMITH CHART A load Impedance ZL=100+j80 is to be matched to a 75 line using a single shunt stub tuner. Find two solution using open circuited and short circuited stubs.
