Electromagnetic Theory

  1. An open wire transmission line has R = 5 Ω /m, L = 5.2 × 10– 8 H/n, G = 6.2 × 10– 3 S/m, C = 2.13 × 10–10 F/m. The signal frequency is 4 GHz. The impedance of the line for which there will be no reflection is in rectangular and polar form—
    1. 179.44 + j 26.50, 181.39 ∠8.40º
    2. 15.623 + j 0.0205, 15.623 ∠– 0.075º
    3. 200 + j 26.50, 181.39 ∠8.40º
    4. 220 + j 26.50, 244 ∠– 0.75º
Correct Option: B

Evaluating the value by substituting in basic equation of characteristic impedance we get the impedance which is characteristic impedance


Z0 =
R + jωL
= 15.623 ∠– 0.075
G + jωC
