] Open and Short-Circuited Lines The voltage and current at any point ina transmission ine are dependent on the load at the end of the line and on the distance of the points frem rae load. Since the impedance at any point is the ratio ‘of the voltage to the current a: that point, the impedance then must also be dependent of the load and the distance from it. Thus in any ‘wansmission line the load, é.¢. the termination establishes the current and voltage relations ; while the relation at the generator terminals determines the input impedance ‘Therefore, various ways in which the voltage and current may be distributed along a transmission line can be understood by con- sidering in detail the following significant cases of the load : (i) when the load end ic. the terminating ead is open, }) when the load endl is shorted and ) when the load is equal to the characteristic impedance. Open-circuited line is defined as a transmission Line whose far end, i.e. the terminating ead is open. Similarly short-circuited line is defined as a transmission line whose far ead is shorted. Both the open-circuited line and short-circuited line can be arranged by proper choice of the line length to act as series resonant or parallel resonant or any desired value of reactance eiz. inductance and capacitance. In U.HLF. range, however, these lines length are appreciably small ard thus find considerable’ appiication as Teactance etc. These short lengths of the line are commonly termed as stubs. ‘The use of short-circuited stubs as variable reactances is a common high frequency technique. Open-circuited stubs are rarely used because it is difficult to vary their length: and because of radiation losses at the open ends 21. Reflected and Incedenc Waves As already explained in chapter 1 when the load, ie. the termination is equal to the characteristic impedance of a transmission line, it is equivalent to an infinite line. Therefore, all the energy sent down the line is completely absorbed by the load and no reflec- 36. TRANSMISSION LINES AND NETWORKS, tion takes place. However in dealing with open and short-circuited lines, all the energy sent down the line is reflecced back because there is no resistance at the terminating end to absorb it. It ic, therefore, necessary to examine the result of reflected energy, in order to analyse the voltage and current distribution along the open and shor(- circuited lines. “Voltage and current at any point of a transmission line has already been given by Eq. (1°39). Vabe?* taeP= 1 — Px Px z, We ac) The voltage and current existing in a transmission Lune as given by above equations can be conveniently expressed as the sum of the voltage and current of two waves ciz. be~** and aeP* The first term be—P* in each of the above. equations represents a voltage or current componen: of 2 travelling wave decreasing exponentially due to factor e~?* in the direction of x increasing, i.e. towards the load. This wave is called the incident weve because it is incident on the load, Thus, the term be—P* represents the net sum of all individual waves that travel to the load. Similarly, the second term ae* in each of the above equations represents a wave similar to the first but travelling in opposite direction. ‘This wave is called the reflected wave and is generated at the load by the reflection of the incident wave. Thus, the term acs represents the sum of all waves that :ravel away from the load, because the distance x will be negative as it is now measured in the direction of « decreasing... ‘These two waves incident and reflected as shown in Fig. 2-1, are incident in nature except for consequences arising from thei Sas different direction of wavel. It can,” therefore, be concluded that voltage REFLECTED-WAVE and currant at any point of a line may be interpreted as the superposi- tion of two waves travelling in ‘opposite direction. If the line is infinite z=00, the reflected component aeP= PX Fig. 2-1. Jacideat wave in open and sborted circuited line. sae sz will be negative for reflected wave as explained above). This (hows that there is no reflected wave in an infinite line which OPEN AND SHORT-CIRCUITED LINES. 37 confirm to earlier statements of no reflection in an infinite line or a finite line terminated in its characteristic impedance. 22. Standing Waves in Open and Short-Circuit Lines As explained in Art. 2'1, there will be two waves travelling in opposite directions between the input end-and the load end. At some points in the line the two wavés will always be in phase and will add. while at other points tlie nwo waves will always be out of phase and will cancel. The places where the two waves add will be point of maximum voltage and is termed anti-nodes, while the points of cancellation will have minimum-voltage and is termed nodes. In the case of open and short-circuited line, since complete reflections takes place, the cancellation is complete and the voltage minimum in zero. Since the positions of maxima and minima or anti-nodes and nodes voltage remain motionless, a standing wave is said to exist on the line: r (i) Open circwited lines. A voltage difference can exist bett ween two wires but no current can flow in open circuit. Thus a- : : ' {cuRRENT : i ‘ ‘ " s Ale 34/4 He 2/4 _GOaC (a) Loss LESS LINE () Lossy Line Fig. 2-2. Voltage and curreat distribution along open circuited line. ‘the open ended termination of this line there exist a maximum voltage and a minimum (nearly zero) current. Therefore, impedance at the open end will be infinite. A quarter-wavelength from the open end, the incident wave will be 90° earlier and the reflected wave 90° later they are at the end, and thus will be 180° out of phase. At this point the voltage will be zero. © Similar reasoning shows that the standing wave pattern is repeated every half-wave lengths, that is, maxima are spaced half- 38 TRANSMISSION LINES AND NETWORKS wavelength apart on the transmission line and minima are also spaced half a wavelength apart. The distance between a maximum and minimum is a quater wavelength. ‘The current maximum occurs at a point of voltage minimum and vice versa. ‘The current and voltage distribution along the open-circuited line as shown in Fi In a high frequency lossless line the values of the different maxima are equal as shown in Fig. 2-2 (a) ; however in a lossy line, these go on decreasing due to attenuation of the line as shown in Fig. 2-2 (6). : (ii) Short-circuited lines~, Access the short-circuited end between the two transmision line wires there can be no voltage difference, but there will be a maximum current flow. Therefore, at the short- circuited termination, the current is maximum, the voltage is zero and impedance wi'l also be zero. The. standing waves thus has a node or minimum at the short-circuited end and at every half-wave- length from the end. : Voltage and current distributions here differs from the distribu- tions of the open-circuited case only in that voltage and current are interchanged. That is, with short-circuited load the voltage on the line goes through minima at distances from the load that are even multiples of quater wavelength and through maxima at distance that are odd multiple of a quarter wavelength. ‘The voltage and current distributions along short-circuited lines are shown in Fig. 2-3. In a lossless line the distribution is as shown “@) Lossy line Fig. 2-3. Voltage and curreat distribution along short circuited line in Fig. 2-3.

Input Impedance of Open and Short Circuited Lines Input impedance of an open-circuited line is tie impedance measured at the input of a finite length of line when its far end is open as shown in Fig. 2-4 (a). It is normally denoted by Zse. a) Fig. 2-4. Input impedance of open and short circuited lines. Similarly, input impedance of a short-circuited lines is the impedance measured at the input end of finite length of line when its far end is shorted. It is usually denoted byZ,e, as shown in Fig. 2-4 (6). Consider a length of line J, having far end voltage and current « Vrand Ix respectively.

Thus, Zee and Zye as expressed by Eqs. 2°2 (a) and 2°2 (U) will each become to Zs. itis, therefore, proved again that input impedance of an infinite line is its characteristic impedance (Ref. Art. 1°6). 2:4. Secondary Line Constants in Terms of Zs, and Z, Multiplying Eq.

(2'4) shows that input impedance of an ‘open and short-circuited lossless line is a pure reactance. Desired value of reactance is obtained by varying the electrical length fl stubs, 7 The graph of Zee and Zw as expressed by Eq. (2°4), asa function of i! is shown in Fig. 2.5. Dotted line shows the variations Fig. 2-5. Variation of Z,, and Z,_ with 6! or /. of Zee with Bl or t, while regular lines shows the variation of Zee with Bl or J. Above the horizontal line shows the length of line L in terms of wavelength, while below the horizontal line shows the electrical length of line $l in terms of x. Again, above the horizontal line the value of Zee and Ze will have positive reactance that is inductive, while below the horizontal line the value of Zee and Zye will have negative reactance that is capacitive. Therefore, Zee and Zee assumes all possible reactive values ranging from positive infinity to negative infinity as fl varies from 0 tom, as the length of the line is varied from zero to half wave- length at a given frequency. Considering the variation of Zs. only, parallel resonance or anti-resonance with theoretically infinite impedance occurs when l is an odd multiple of x/2 and series resonance or resonance with theoretically zero impedance occurs when Bl isan even multiple of x/2. ‘The graph from Bl=0 to fl=n (omitting the variation of Zee that is dotted line) has the same general form as the reactance curve of a parallel lumped L C circuits when frequency is varied. Similarly, considering the variation of Zee only, parallel resonance occurs when Bl is an even multiple of n/2 and_ series reasonance occurs when Bl is odd multiple of /2. The graph from 42 TRANSMISSION LINES AND NETWORKS BI=0 to Sl=x (omitting the variation of Zee that is regular line) has the general form as the reactance curve of series lumped L-C circuit, when the frequency is varied. Further more, short and open-circvited stubs having length less than 4/4, value of Zee will be positive, ie. inductive reactance while value of Zee will be negative, ¥.¢. capacitive reactance. Similar- ly, short and open circuited stubs‘of length between A/4 to A/2 the reactance of Zye will be capacitive while reactance of Zee will be inductive. The result obtained in Fig: 2-5 hold for all frequencies. The theory is perfectly general} but, at low frequencies and long wavelengths, it is not possible to obtain reasonable lengths to simulate a complete reactance variation, At high frequencies or short wave- lengths, ic is rather simple to obtain the complete reactance varia- tions with manageable length cf line. 26. Experimental Determination of Primary and Secondary Line Constants It has already been explained in Art. 24 that primary and secondary constants of a transmission line can be computed from the knowledge of Zee and Zsc. These quantities can be found by measure- ment of the input impedance of the line under two conditions : (i) with the far end of the line shorted and (ii) with the far end of the line open. ‘The input impedance of a line is normally determined by an 4.C. Bridge (WIEN) as shown in Fig. 2-6. The input end of the Fig. 2-6. A.C. Bridge (Wien). OPEN AND SHORT-CIRCUITED LINES 43 line PQ is connected in BD arm of the bridge. The opposite arm CD contains an adjustable resistor R and variable capacitor C. The impedance Z across CD arm and consequently R and C are so adjusted that no current flows (null point) through galvanometerG . Under this condition of null.

If R, and R, are so choosen that have equal values, then Zin Z or Z=Liw This shows that under null condition the impedance of the arm CD will be the input impedance of the line. Thus, we have to determine the value of Z. 1 1 G =z tee R af 2— jek” Multiplying the right hand side numerator and denominator by (1—JjwOR) in order to separate the real and imaginary parts, we get _ RU=joR) _ g 2= TpetoRy 2 tI% say R Therefore, <=7750R" —wCR* aoa T= Tyrer ‘Thus, {Z| =VaepyF R “Tieor ++(2°5 a): Also g=tant = =taf!

In order to find the value of Zee, the far end is open-circuited for specified period and Ziw is determined” from Eq. (2°5), let us say it is Zee/$se. Similarly, in order to determine the value of Zee, the far end is now shorted for a definite period and Ziw is deter- mined again as. Zrelbse- Precautious to be talen in performing the experiments (a) A sensitive galvan ometer should be. used and it should be shunted to avoid excessive deflection of the galvanometer when the bridge is out of balance. : (0) Parallax error should be-avoided while getting null point. (c) If there is any phantom telegraph working in the Circuit, it should be disconnected after intimation to the concerned staff. (d) Maintenance staff likely to handle the line should be warned about the test timings. (e) The test should be taken at the line commutator, cutting out all internal wiring and other equipments. (i) Experimental determination of Zee. After determining the value of the input impedance of open and short circuited line by an A.C. Wein’s bridge the value of Z, can be easily determined from Eq. (2°3 a) by substituting the values of Zee and Z« there in. Zo= A LeeX Lue =A Ti BoeX Zul bue =1EaxZe| = As a measure of check, after Z, is calculated, the far end is asked to connect this value of Z, and thus the value of Ziw-is com- puted again. It should be equal to Z,. This is because the input impedance of a line termined in its characteristice impedance Zo. (ii) Experimental determination of P. After obtaining the values of Zee and Z,e by an A.C. bridge, the propagation constant P an be computed by putting these values in Eq. (2°3 6). +++(2°6) OPEN AND SHORT-CIRCUITED LINES 45 Therefore, tanh Pl=Z,/4,, suppose Eq. (2'6) shows that the value of P cannot be directly obtained from it unless it is simplified mathematically. Converting right hand side of Eq. (2°6) into a Cartesian form, we get tanh Pl=Z,(cos 4,+J sin $,) Pl_g-Pl a PoP ATSB.

Taking log of both the sides, 2Pi=log, {1/6} loge r.eH6+207) Thus, Papp loge r+5(0+2nn)} (28) The addition of 2nn to the quadrature component result from the fact that the logarithm of “a complex number is not uniquely defined. n is a positive integer here. (iii) Experimental determination of , 8, and vy. It has been shown above that P can be determined with the knowledge of Zee and Ze while Zee and Zye can be obtained from A.C. Wien’s bridge as explained above. The real part of P will give the attenuation constant «, while the imaginary part of P will give the phase constant 8. Thus, from Eq. (2°8), we get ++(2°9 a) and +-(2°9 8) The problem now is to assign a suitable value for n in order to obtain the desired value of B. This can be done if approximate velocity of propagation is known. 46 TRANSMISSSON LINES AND NETWORKS If the approximate velocity of propagation is given, the approximate vaule of B can be found out from the relation, o Or=t ‘After obtaining the approximate value of B, the corresponding value of nis calculated from Eq. (2°94). Rounding off this value of n to the nearest integer will give. the desired value of n. Substituting this value of n in Eq. (2°9 6) wif give the correct value of B. After getting the correct value of f, velocity of propagation vp can be readily computed from relation, oe A Obtaining the values of P and B from the knowledge of Zee and Zveis rather typical of its type and is better understood by examples given beloow : Example 2:1.

In this chapter we will deal with the fourth mode of termination, i.e. the termination Zr, other than the characteristic impedance of the line. This type of termination is normally referred as line with any termination. Obviously open-circuited and short- circuited terminations becomes the particular cases of the line with any termination when Zg=oo and Zx=0 respectively. When a voltage is applied to a transmission line, it originates an incident wave and there is no reflected wave if the line is infinite ‘or is terminated in its characteristic impedance as already i in earlier chapter. However, when a line is terminated with any impedance Zz, part of the energy will be absorbed and part of it will be reflected back. Therefore, line with any termanition ga case of partial refiection while open and ‘short-circuited termination are the cases of total reflection. ‘The input imy ce of a_long line with losses having any termination can safely be considered to be the characteristic impe-. dance of the line and is independent of the terminating i ipedance 2x. The reason for this is that when attenuation is of much i- tude, the reflected wave becomes negligible compared to the incident wave and the input impedance is simply the ratio of the voltage to the current in a single (incident) wave. In contrast the input impe- dance of short lines with high loss is determined by the terminating i impedance Ze and is independent of its characteristic impedance. Tn practical communication lines the termination Zz is of very much importance because unless Zr'is the conjugate complex of the source impedance maximum power is not transferred to Zz and there is a power loss. The magnitude of this power loss can be assessed oe the ames of reflection taking place. This will be discussed in letail later. 64 LINE WITH ANY TERMINATION 65 31.

In other words input impedance of a transmission: line is the impedance seen looking into the sending end or input terminals.

Input Impedance of a Lossless Line Input impedance of a lossless line (.e., high frequency line) of any length can, of course be found from Smith chart (which will be described later) where it will be shown.that its locus for neligible losses simply follows a circle of constant reflection coefficient. For some purposes it is, however, convenient to have a formula for the input smpedance, perhaps to obtain better accuracy than be realised grapically by Smith chart. From Eq.

Reflection Reflection of energy occurs when there is an impedance: ir- regularity, ¢.e. when the primary constants of the transmission line are not uniform along the line ; or the terminated impedance at the far end is different from Z, of the line assumed to be uniform. ‘The phenomenon of setting up of a reflected wave at the load due to improper termination or due to impedance irregularity in a line is called reflection. The reflection takes place because the ratio of electric field and magnetic field on both the sides of terminals boundary must be the same under all conditions. The condition will be satisfied by the addition of reflected wave to the incident wave. 70 TRANSMISSION LINES AND NETWORKS: Reffection is normally undesirable on transmisson line. If the attenuation is not large the reflected wave appears as echo at the tending end. In addition there is a reduction in efficiency and Sutput because a portion of the received.energy is rejected back by the load. The reflected wave is reflected again at the sending end, resulting in.a new incident wave. The energy is thus transmitted back and forth on the line until dissipated in the line losses. & The reflection will be rhaximum when the line is open or short circuited and will be zero when Zr=Zo- 3°5. Reflection Coefficient Reftection coefficient is defined as the ratio of the reflected voltage to the incident voltage. It is normally denoted by K. Reflection coefficient is, in general a vector quantity having magnitude and direction both. In fact, dealing with the voltage the ratio is called Voltage Reflection Coefficient abbreviated as V.R.C. Similarly in dealing with the current the ratio of the reflected current to the incident is tilled current reflection coefficient. The only difference between the two is that current reflection coefficient is the negative of voltage reflection coefficient. Let Viand V; be the incident and reflected voltage respec: tively. ve 4 ‘Then uo ...(3°9 a) Similarly let Zs and I; be the incident end reflected current respectively. ; Then, Fae (3°96) ft Reflection coefficient is a measure of the voltage a current reflected from any point in a transmission line due. to an mpedanc.e irregularity, or from the receiving end due to improper itermination Fundamental equations for voltage and current at any point ofa transmission line as per Eqs.
