Lecture 4 Transmission lines

Transmission lines (1) Transmission lines or T-lines are used to guide
propagation of EM waves at high frequencies.
Examples: Transmitter and antenna Connections between computers in a network Interconnects between components of a stereo system Connection between a cable service provider and aTV set. Connection between devices on circuit board
Distances between devices are separated by much larger order of wavelength than those in the normal
electrical circuits causing time delay.

Ex1 A 12-dB amplifier is in series with a 4-dB attenuator. What is the overall gain of the circuit?
Ex2 If 1 W of power is inserted into a coaxial cable, and 1 W of power is measured 100m down the line, what is the line’s attenuation in dB/m?
17
Ex3 A 20 m length of the transmission line is known to produce a 2 dB drop in the power from end to end,a) what fraction of the input power does it reach
the output?
b) What fraction of the input power does it reach the midpoint of the line?
c) What is the attenuation constant?

Wave reflection at discontinuities To satisfy boundary conditions between
two dissimilar lines
If the line is lossy, Z0 will be complex.

Reflection coefficient at the load (1) The phasor voltage along the line can be
shown as
The phasor voltage and current at the load is the sum of incident and reflected values evaluated at z = 0.

Total power transmission (matched condition) The main objective in transmitting power to a
load is to configure line/load combination such that there is no reflection, that means.

Voltage standing wave ratio Incident and reflected waves create
“Standing wave”. Knowing standing waves or the voltage
amplitude as a function of position helps determine load and input impedances

Forms of voltage (1)
If a load is matched then no reflected wave occurs, the voltage will be the same at every point.
If the load is terminated in short or open circuit, the total voltage form becomes a standing wave.
If the reflected voltage is neither 0 nor 100 percent of the incident voltage then the total voltage will compose of both traveling and standing waves.
