Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Analyze a scenario involving a transmission line with Z0 = 50 Ohms connected to a load of ZL = 20 - j30 Ohms. Discuss how single-stub matching can be employed to optimize this setup.

💡 Hint: Break down the scenario step-by-step, focusing on the importance of each phase.

Question 2

Given a transmitter with Z0 = 75 Ohms and a connected load exhibiting a reflection coefficient of Γ = 0.3 at 180 degrees, outline how you would use the Smith Chart to design a matching network with a shunt stub.

💡 Hint: Think critically about your movements on the Smith Chart to achieve ideal matching.
