form.
Q2: A 78 Ω lossless planar line was designed but did not meet a requirement. What fraction of
the widths of the strip should be added or removed to get the characteristic impedance of 75 Ω?
Q3: A lossless transmission line operating at 4.5 GHz has L=2.4𝜇𝐻/𝑚 and Z0 = 85Ω. Calculate
the phase constant and phase velocity. Is the line dispersion less or not.
Q4: An 80-ft transmission line operating at 12 MHz is terminated by a load Z L. At 22 m from the
load, the input impedance is 100 - j120 Ω. If u= 0.8c,
(b) Find ZL, s, and the input impedance at 28 m from the load.
(c) How many Zin, max and Zin, min are there between the load and the 100 — j120 Ω input
impedance?
Q5: An antenna, connected to a 150-Ω lossless line, produces a standing wave ratio of 2.6. If
measurements indicate that voltage maxima are 120 cm apart and that the last maximum is 40 cm
from the antenna, calculate
Q6: A 100 km telephone line has a series resistance of 4 /km, an inductance of 3 mH/km, a
leakage conductance of 1 S/km, and a shunt capacitance of 0.015 F/km, at an angular
frequency = 5000 rad/s. At the sending end there is a generator supplying 100 volts peak, at
5000 radians per second, in series with a resistance of 300 . The load at the receiving end
consists of a 200 resistor. Find the voltage and current as functions of z, and calculate their
values at the midpoint of the line, if the load current IL = −0.115 + j0.0268 A.
