Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

You have a transmission line with R = 0.05 Ω/m, L = 200 nH/m, G = 20 µS/m, and C = 80 pF/m. Calculate Z0 and explain the significance.

💡 Hint: Pay close attention to the unit conversion for accurate results.

Challenge 2 Hard

Given the propagation constant γ = 0.03 + j0.1 for a transmission line, determine both α and β and explain their physical meanings.

💡 Hint: Remember the definitions of α and β from the previous discussions.
