Problem 2.

21 On a 150-Ω lossless transmission line, the following observations


were noted: distance of first voltage minimum from the load = 3 cm; distance of first
voltage maximum from the load = 9 cm; S = 3. Find ZL .
Solution: Distance between a minimum and an adjacent maximum = λ /4. Hence,

9 cm − 3 cm = 6 cm = λ /4,
λ
or λ = 24 cm. Accordingly, the first voltage minimum is at dmin = 3 cm = 8.
Application of Eq. (2.71) with n = 0 gives

2π λ
θr − 2 × × = −π ,
λ 8
which gives θr = −π /2.

S−1 3−1 2
|Γ| = = = = 0.5.
S+1 3+1 4

Hence, Γ = 0.5 e− jπ /2 = − j0.5.


Finally, · ¸ · ¸
1+Γ 1 − j0.5
ZL = Z0 = 150 = (90 − j120) Ω.
1−Γ 1 + j0.5
