Important Information for Students

The criteria each task relates to are shown against that task where possible.

Please note that plagiarism is treated as a serious offence and therefore the work you
produce must be individual and original although may work in groups in some
instances (Please refer to Student Handbook on Plagiarism & Cheating).

All sources of information must be referenced using Harvard referencing where a
reference list/Bibliography should be included at the end of the assignment.

Please note that the submission date given for this assignment is the final date that you
can hand over the assignment. A one week grace period maybe extended with prior
approval from the Program Manager Undergraduate. However, note that
submissions handed in one week late will be graded lower (Please refer to the Student
Handbook on Assessments - Late Submissions & Penalties).

Assignments returned to students for re-working must be re-submitted within 10 days
(Please refer to Student Handbook on Assignments Re-submission).

Failure to re-submit the previously marked assignment with the re-submitted
assignment will mean that results cannot be released for the respective unit.

Please read, follow and reference both the contents of the unit outline and the grading
criteria of the assignment before completing this assignment.

PRESENTATION

The presentation of the assignment solutions must be organized, clear, and descriptive. Consider
the following example.
Using an appropriate software package express the following algebraic fraction as partial
fractions

Ss
2
+ 2s +S
s
2
+Ss +2


Two methods of presentation of the answer to this question are given below.
Answer-1
Ss
2
+ 2s +S
s
2
+Ss +2
= S -
11
s +2
+
4
s +1


Answer-2
Ss
2
+ 2s +S
s
2
+Ss +2

Package used is Matlab.

The Matlab code and the results returned are

>> num=[3 2 3];
>> den=[1 3 2];
>> [r, p, k]=residue(n,d)

r =
-11
4
p =
-2

k = 3

Hence, we get
Ss
2
+ 2s +S
s

+Ss +2
= S -

s -(-1)
= S -

Also calculate the sending end voltage, current, and power factor and the efficiency of
transmission

Task 3 (P2-2, D2)

A] Clearly show the series, parallel and cascade connections of the two port networks using
clearly labeled diagrams.

B] Briefly describe the importance of using two port parameter matrices.
