Line with a
Big Mismatch |
|
|
This 50 W line is connected to a
high-impedance load (250 W), creating a
larger reflection coefficient of G=0.67. |

Big Mismatch Voltages |

|
Notes: |
- Now there is a very obvious mix of traveling and standing waves on
this line.
|
- The greater the mismatch at the load, the more sensitive the
equivalent circuit of the transmission line (as seen from the source) becomes to the line length. Since this line is exactly 4l
in length, the equivalent impedance of the line, Zin, looks exactly
like ZL. If the line were shortened just a little, the effective
impedance would look much smaller.
