Microwave Ovens
Percy Spencer, while working for Raytheon in the 1940s on the design and construction of
magnetrons for radar, observed that a chocolate bar that had unintentionally been exposed to
microwaves had melted in his pocket. The process of cooking by microwave was patented in
1946, and by the 1970s microwave ovens had become standard household items.

Section 2-5: The Lossless Line


Problem 2.6 In addition to not dissipating power, a lossless line has two important
features: (1) it is dispertionless (p is independent of frequency) and (2) its
characteristic impedance Z0 is purely real. Sometimes, it is not possible to design
a transmission line such that R

dimensions of the line and its material properties so as to satisfy the condition

(distortionless line)

Such a line is called a distortionless line because despite the fact that it is not lossless,
it does nonetheless possess the previously mentioned features of the loss line. Show

25 j50 is to be connected to a
lossless transmission line with characteristic impedance Z 0 , with Z0 chosen such that
the standing-wave ratio is the smallest possible. What should Z 0 be?

Solution: Since S is monotonic with (i.e., a plot of S vs. is always increasing),


the value of Z0 which gives the minimum possible S also gives the minimum possible
, and, for that matter, the minimum possible 2 . A necessary condition for a

Problem 2.28 A 100-MHz FM broadcast station uses a 300- transmission line


between the transmitter and a tower-mounted half-wave dipole antenna. The antenna
impedance is 73 . You are asked to design a quarter-wave transformer to match the
antenna to the line.
(a) Determine the electrical length and characteristic impedance of the quarterwave section.
(b) If the quarter-wave section is a two-wire line with d 2 5 cm, and the spacing
between the wires is made of polystyrene with r 2 6, determine the physical
length of the quarter-wave section and the radius of the two wire conductors.

(a) For a match condition, the input impedance of a load must match that of the

Problem 2.29 A 50-MHz generator with Z g


50 is connected to a load
ZL
50 j25 . The time-average power transferred from the generator into the
load is maximum when Zg ZL where ZL is the complex conjugate of ZL . To achieve
this condition without changing Z g , the effective load impedance can be modied by
adding an open-circuited line in series with Z L , as shown in Fig. 2-40 (P2.29). If the
lines Z0 100 , determine the shortest length of line (in wavelengths) necessary
for satisfying the maximum-power-transfer condition.

Solution: Since the real part of Z L is equal to Zg , our task is to nd l such that the
input impedance of the line is Z in
j25 , thereby cancelling the imaginary part
of ZL (once ZL and the input impedance the line are added in series). Hence, using

Solution: Since line 2 is 2 in length, the input impedance is the same as


ZL1 75 . The same is true for line 3. At junction CD, we now have two 75-
impedances in parallel, whose combination is 75 2 37 5 . Line 1 is 2 long.

Problem 2.33 For the circuit shown in Fig. 2-42 (P2.33), calculate the average
incident power, the average reected power, and the average power transmitted into
the innite 100- line. The 2 line is lossless and the innitely long line is
slightly lossy. (Hint: The input impedance of an innitely long line is equal to its
characteristic impedance so long as 0.)

Solution: Considering the semi-innite transmission line as equivalent to a load

Solution: Refer to Fig. P2.38. The normalized impedance

zL

is at point Z-LOAD.
(a) 0 24e j76 0 The angle of the reection coefcient is read of that scale at
the point r .

CHAPTER 2

63

(b) At the point SW R: S 1 64.


(c) Zin is 0 350 from the load, which is at 0 144 on the wavelengths to generator
scale. So point Z-IN is at 0 144 0 350 0 494 on the WTG scale. At point
Z-IN:

Zin

(e) Traveling from the point Z-LOAD in the direction of the generator (clockwise),
the SWR circle crosses the xL 0 line rst at the point SWR. To travel from Z-LOAD
to SWR one must travel 0 250 0 144 0 106. (Readings are on the wavelengths
to generator scale.) So the shortest line length would be 0 106.
(f) The voltage max occurs at point SWR. From the previous part, this occurs at
0 106.

Problem 2.39 A lossless 50- transmission line is terminated in a short circuit.


Use the Smith chart to nd
(a) the input impedance at a distance 2 3 from the load,
(b) the distance from the load at which the input admittance is Yin
j0 04 S.

Solution: Refer to Fig. P2.39.


(a) For a short, zin 0 j0. This is point Z-SHORT and is at 0 000 on the WTG
scale. Since a lossless line repeats every 2, traveling 2 3 toward the generator is
equivalent to traveling 0 3 toward the generator. This point is at A : Z-IN, and

(b) The admittance of a short is at point Y -SHORT and is at 0 250 on the WTG
scale:

which is point B : Y -IN and is at 0 324 on the WTG scale. Therefore, the line length
is 0 324 0 250 0 074. Any integer half wavelengths farther is also valid.

Problem 2.41 A lossless 100- transmission line 3 8 in length is terminated in


an unknown impedance. If the input impedance is Z in
j2 5 ,
(a) use the Smith chart to nd ZL .
(b) What length of open-circuit line could be used to replace Z L ?

Solution: Refer to Fig. P2.41. zin Zin Z0


j2 5 100 0 0 j0 025 which
is at point Z-IN and is at 0 004 on the wavelengths to load scale.
(a) Point Z-LOAD is 0 375 toward the load from the end of the line. Thus, on the
wavelength to load scale, it is at 0 004 0 375 0 379.

and is at point Z-LOAD-2. Since at the junction the lines are in parallel, it is
advantageous to solve the problem using admittances. y 1 is point Y -LOAD-1, which
is at 0 412 on the WTG scale. y2 is point Y -LOAD-2, which is at 0 088 on the
WTG scale. Traveling 0 300 from Y -LOAD-1 toward the generator one obtains the
input admittance for the upper feed line, point Y -IN-1, with a value of 1 97 j1 02.
Since traveling 0 700 is equivalent to traveling 0 200 on any transmission line,
the input admittance for the lower line feed is found at point Y -IN-2, which has a
value of 1 97 j1 02. The admittance of the two lines together is the sum of their
admittances: 1 97 j1 02 1 97 j1 02 3 94 j0 and is denoted Y -JU NCT .
0 300 from Y -JU NCT toward the generator is the input admittance of the entire
feed line, point Y -IN, from which Z-IN is found.

Problem 2.55 A generator circuit with Vg 200 V and Rg 25 was used to


excite a 75- lossless line with a rectangular pulse of duration 0 4 s. The line
is 200 m long, its up 2 108 m/s, and it is terminated in a load Z L 125 .
(a) Synthesize the voltage pulse exciting the line as the sum of two step functions,
Vg1 t and Vg2 t .
(b) For each voltage step function, generate a bounce diagram for the voltage on
the line.
(c) Use the bounce diagrams to plot the total voltage at the sending end of the line.

ending up at point C on Smith chart 2. The normalized input impedance of line 1 is:

CHAPTER 2

The normalized load impedance is:

25
75

0 33

(point A on Smith chart)

zL

The Smith chart shows A and the SWR circle. The goal is to have an equivalent
impedance of 75 to the left of B. That equivalent impedance is the parallel
combination of Zin at B (to the right of the shunt impedance Z) and the shunt
element Z. Since we need for this to be purely real, its best to choose l such that
Zin is purely real, thereby choosing Z to be simply a resistor. Adding two resistors in
parallel generates a sum smaller in magnitude than either one of them. So we need
for Zin to be larger than Z0 , not smaller. On the Smith chart, that point is B, at a
distance l 4 from the load. At that point:

zin
which corresponds to

0 33

yin

Hence, we need y, the normalized admittance corresponding to the shunt


impedance Z, to have a value that satises:

Problem 2.65 In response to a step voltage, the voltage waveform shown in the
gure below was observed at the midpoint of a lossless transmission line with
Z0 50 and up 2 108 m/s. Determine: (a) the length of the line, (b) Z L ,

(b) From the voltage waveform shown in the gure, the duration of the rst
rectangle is 6 s, representing the time it takes the incident voltage V1 to travel
from the midpoint of the line to the load and back. The fact that the voltage drops to
zero at t 9 s implies that the reected wave is exactly equal to V1 in magnitude,
but opposite in polarity. That is,
