Transmission Lines are Guiding devices for carrying
electromagnetic waves to and from antenna, etc.
Transmission Line behavior occurs when the wavelength of the
wave is small relative to the length of the cable.
We have already shown that in a loss-less line (zero resistance
along conductors, infinite resistance between them), the
propagation speed is given by
where L and C are the inductance and capacitance per unit length.
The characteristic (specific) impedance is given by:

Problem
From the Smith Chart, we find that we need to move 0.86 away from the
load (i.e., towards the generator) in order to eliminate the reactance (or
imaginary) impedance component. At this point, the resistive (real)
element is 0.29. Thus:

Stub Matching :
We showed how a quarter-wavelength matching section can be used to
impedance-match a load to a line. However, this technique has a major
disadvantage: it is unlikely that one can find a transmission line with exactly the
right characteristic impedance to perform the matching.
An alternative method is known as Stub-Matching
Using the parameters of example 1
Stub Matching requires us to convert from impedance Z to admittance Y.
Suppose we have a load with an impedance of (40+j80) which we need
to match to a 100 transmission line. (c 3x10
8
m/s and f=130 MHz).

Looking into the line at the point X, we see a normalized admittance
(1+j1.65).
If we introduce a reactive admittance of j1.65 in parallel with the line at
this point, the overall admittance will be 1.+j0 and the matching will be
achieved.

Times the previous step. Could be

1. No activity at the load until the time T
2. The initial step at that time is the product of two factors, initially launched forward wave on
the line and the sum of the unity and the reflection factor at the load known as the
transmission factor at the load junction.
3. Each of the subsequent steps is a common factor times the amplitude of the preceding step.
4. The steps become progressively smaller so that the eventual load voltage converges towards
a value which is recognizable as the value the load voltage would have if one simply
regarded the source impedance and load impedance as forming a voltage divider delivering
to the load a fraction of the source voltage.

Matching of T.L.
We recall from lumped circuit theory the maximum power transfer theorem for a.c. circuits
which indicates that a sinusoidal steady state source of fixed internal voltage V
s
and source
impedance Z
S
will deliver maximum power to a load impedance Z
L
when Z
L
is adjusted to
be the complex conjugate of the source impedance Z
S
, that is
*
S L
Z Z =
Matching of the T.L. at both ends makes power transfer between the source and the load
take place at minimum loss, and also makes the system behavior become independent of
the line length.
