ANSWER TO LAB NO-01

Q.No.01:

Define line length switch?

Ans

It is three position rotary switch, position designated L, 2L, 8L gives

propagation times 0.25sec, 0.5sec, 2sec respectively.

Q.No.02:

What is the function of HOLD/RUN switch?

Ans:

It steps signal changes on line, except end two columns.

Q.No.03:

Write down characteristic impedance of TLD-511 and VPG 608?

Ans:

TLD-511 has 600

VPG-608 has 600

Q.No.04:
Ans

Define frequency control switch?

It is rotary range switch, having five positions from 0.01Hz to 1.0KHz. Fine
frequency control with transparent dial that is linearly calibrated.

ANSWER TO LAB NO-02

Q.No.01:
Ans:

What is the value of the reflection coefficient, from your observation of the
reflected pulse?
The reflection coefficient is
(Reflected signal)
(Incident signal)

Q.No.02:

Does that value agree with the calculated value?

Ans:

(i)-------(200 600)
(200 + 600)
400
800

1/2 in the first case

(ii)

(1800 600)
(1800 + 600)
400
800
1/2

ANSWER TO LAB NO-03

Q.No.01:
Ans:

When greater mismatch will occur?

When the load impedance differ more from the characteristic impedance Zo.

Q.No.02:

What will be the effect on transmission line when load is zero or infinity?

Ans:

All the power reaching the end of the line is reflected back toward the source.

ANSWER TO LAB NO-05

Q.No.01:

What is the frequency of DRO in the trainer?

Ans

10.425GHz

Q.No.02:

In which band of frequency, this trainer works?

Ans

X-band, 8.2 to 12.4GHz

Q.No.03:

What is the function of variable attenuator?

Ans

These are basically resistors, named resistive vane central slot type and are
used to set attenuation level and control power transmission in waveguide.
Max. Attenuation is at vane setting 0 approx 36db, minimum at 90,
less than 1db.

Q.No.04:

What is the safety precaution of trainer 56-200 while in use?

Ans

Never look directly into an energized waveguide.

ANSWER TO LAB NO-06

Q.No.01:

Define cavity wave meter in the trainer?

Ans

The cavity consists of circular wave guide of diameter D= 28.3mm. it length

can be adjusted to be a maximum of approximately 22mm.

Q.No.02:

What is the diameter of cavity circular wave guide?

Ans

28.3mm

Q.No.03:

How many modes the cavity supports and write the names as well?

Ans

Two modes, H11 mode and E01 mode

Q.No.04:

Which type of scale is an micrometer barrel?

Ans

Linear.

ANSWER TO LAB NO-08

Q.No.01:

What will be the VSWR(s) with resistive load if Imax is 4.8mA and Imin is
2.4mA.

Ans:

Q.No.02:

What will be the VSWR(s) with horn antenna load if Imax is 4.2mA and Imin
is 3.0mA.

Ans:

Q.No.03:

Which type of load present poor match and why?

Ans:

Resistive load because it has greater VSWR than horn antenna load.
