Reflection Coefficient, Enforcing the boundary conditions at = gave us Eq Substitute Eq. (1) into Eq. () to eliate Eq. Solve this new expression for Transmission ine Behavior Slide 8 4

5 9/8/17 Revised Equations for () and I() The total voltage and current in any section of line was written as e e I e e Using the concept of the reflection coefficient, these equations can now be written as e e e e I e e e e Reflection coefficient at the load 1 1 Transmission ine Behavior Slide 9 Power on a Transmission ine Transmission ine Behavior Slide 1 5

6 9/8/17 Power Flowing Along ength of ine The RMS power flowing at a distance from the load is 1 * Pavg Re I * is complex conjugate This equation is valid for any line, even those with loss. For lossless lines (not lossless loads), we have j j j j e e I e e Substituting these equations into our expression for P avg () gives * 1 Pavg Re e e e e P avg j j j j 1 Notice that the dependence vanished. This is because power flows uniformly without decay in lossless lines. * Transmission ine Behavior Slide 11 oltage Standing Wave Ratio (SWR) Transmission ine Behavior Slide 1 6

7 9/8/17 oltage Standing Wave Ratio (SWR) The SWR is essentially the same concept as the standing wave ratio (SWR) discussed along with waves. The only difference is that it describes voltage and current instead of electromagnetic fields. max max I SWR I Transmission ine Behavior Slide 13 Derivation of SWR (1 of ) We start with our expression for waves travelling in opposite directions on a transmission line. We will assume a lossless line. j j j j e e I e e The magnitude of the voltage signal () is e e e j j j 1 By inspection of this equation, we detere the maximum and imum values of this function. max max 1 1 Transmission ine Behavior Slide 14 7

8 9/8/17 Derivation of SWR ( of ) The SWR is therefore max SWR SWR 1 The SWR is an easily measured quantity and we can calculate the magnitude of the reflection coefficient from the SWR. SWR1 SWR1 Transmission ine Behavior Slide 15 Animation of SWR (1 of 6) Case 1: 5 transmission line terated with a short circuit load. 1 Transmission ine Behavior Slide 16 8

11 9/8/17 Animation of SWR (6 of 6) Case 6: 5 transmission line terated with an RC load. Transmission ine Behavior Slide 1 Input Impedance, in Transmission ine Behavior Slide 11

12 9/8/17 Problem Setup Generator Transmission ine oad g g in, Generator g Input Impedance The input impedance in is the impedance observed by the generator. g in in The input impedance in is NOT necessarily the line s characteristic impedance or the load impedance. Transmission ine Behavior Slide 3 Animation of Impedance Transformation in m 4 Input impedance inverts in 15 j15 in m Input impedance repeats in 1 j1 Transmission ine Behavior Slide 4 1

13 9/8/17 Derivation of Input Impedance, in (1 of ) The reflection coefficient at any point from the load is Backward Wave e e e Forward Wave This means that from the perspective of the generator, the reflection going into the transmission line will change depending on the length of the transmission line. This can only happen of the input impedance to the transmission line is changing. Transmission ine Behavior Slide 5 Derivation of Input Impedance, in ( of ) We define the impedance of the line at position to be We previously wrote () and I() as I e e I e e Substituting in our expressions for () and I() gives e e e e e e e e It makes sense that the impedance is not a function of voltage in a linear system. Transmission ine Behavior Slide 6 13

14 9/8/17 Sanity Check: Input Impedance at oad The input impedance at the load can be detered by setting = in our previous equation. e e in e e Transmission ine Behavior Slide 7 Input Impedance at The input impedance at location is e e e e in e e e e A Note About Sign: Backing away from the load, becomes negative. However, we defined so stays positive in this equation and for equations that follow. Transmission ine Behavior Slide 8 14

15 9/8/17 Impedance Transformation Formula (1 of ) Recall that e e e e We can eliate from the input impedance equation by substituting in our expression for. e e e e e e in e e e e e e Transmission ine Behavior Slide 9 Impedance Transformation Formula ( of ) Now recall the definitions of hyperbolic sine and cosine functions. sinh e e cosh e e This lets us write the input impedance expression as sinh cosh sinh cosh in sinh cosh sinh cosh Recogniing that tanh() = sinh()/cosh(), our expression reduces to tanh in tanh Transmission ine Behavior Slide 3 15

16 9/8/17 Input Transformation for ossless ine The lossless line has j Putting these values into our impedance transformation formula gives tanh j in tanh j Recogniing that tanh(j) = jtan(), our expression for lossless lines becomes j tan in j tan Transmission ine Behavior Slide 31 Input Impedance Repeats for ossless ines For lossless lines, the tan function in the impedance transformation equation tells us that the function is periodic and repeats. The function repeats every integer multiple of. m m,, 3,, 1,,1,, 3,, Recogniing that = /, the above expression leads to m Note: is the wavelength in the transmission line, not the free space wavelength. This means the input impedance repeats for every half wavelength long the transmission line is. We will revisit this when we cover Smith charts, which will give you a way to visualie the impedance transformation phenomenon. Transmission ine Behavior Slide 3 16

17 9/8/17 Example: Impedance Transformation (1 of 3) A transmission line with 5 characteristic impedance is connected to a 1 nf capacitor as the load. If the phase constant of the transmission line is = 6 m -1, what is the input impedance in of a 1 inch section of line operating at 4. GH? What equivalent circuit would the source see? Transmission ine oad in 5 1 nf 1 inch Transmission ine Behavior Slide 33 Example: Impedance Transformation ( of 3) oss was not specified so we assume a lossless transmission line. Our impedance transformation equation is therefore j tan in j tan The variables in this equation are cm 1 m 6 m 1 inch inch 1 cm j.4 jc j fc j 4. 1 s 1 1 F Transmission ine Behavior Slide 34 17

18 9/8/17 Example: Impedance Transformation (3 of 3) Substituting in the values of our variables gives j.4 j 5 tan jj.4 tan in 5 j1.71 The input impedance is purely imaginary and positive. Thus, the input impedance looks like an inductor to the generator. in j eq j1.71 j j f j 4.1 s 3 in in eq H 4.4 nh Transmission ine Behavior Slide 35 Parameter Relations Transmission ine Behavior Slide 36 18

19 9/8/17 max,, I max & I in Terms of SWR max and 1 max 1 SWR SWR1 SWR1 I max and I I I max 1 1 SWR SWR1 SWR1 Transmission ine Behavior Slide 37 in Terms of SWR The characteristic impedance can be calculated from max and I max or and I. I max max I The input impedance in repeats as you back away from the load. We can calculate the maximum and imum impedance as max max in I in SWR I max SWR max in in in Transmission ine Behavior Slide 38 19

20 9/8/17 Example (1 of 3) A 5 impedance transmission line is connected to an antenna with a 7 input impedance. A source provides an input signal of 4 peak to peak. What is the reflection coefficient at the antenna? In this case, the antenna is the load. 7 5 What fraction of the input power is delivered to the antenna? R Despite the mismatch, almost all power is still delivered to the antenna. This still T 1R % does not mean the antenna will radiate! What is the SWR on the line feeding the antenna? SWR SWR log SWR log db db 1 1 Transmission ine Behavior Slide 39 Example ( of 3) What is the imum and maximum voltage on the line? First, we need to convert voltage peak to peak p-p to voltage magnitude. p-p 4 1 Now we are in a position to calculate and max. When we are utiliing high voltages, we want to be sure max will not cause arcing or any other breakdown problems. max What is the imum and maximum current on the line? 9.84 I.1967 A 5 At high power, we want max to be sure I max will not Imax.833 A cause heating problems. 5 Transmission ine Behavior Slide 4
