4 - Smith (33700057)

The document discusses the Smith Chart, a graphical tool used to visualize phenomena on transmission lines, including normalized impedance and reflection coefficients. It explains the relationships between different planes, such as inductive and capacitive reactance, and provides exercises for indicating normalized impedance on the chart. Additionally, it covers concepts related to voltage along the line and wavelengths towards the generator and load.

The Smith Chart

The Graphical Tool

It gives a geometrical picture of the phenomena taking place on


a transmission line

Normalized impedance Reflection coefficient

The reflection coefficient is represented


in complex polar form (complex G plane) where
constant normalized resistance/conductance curves and
constant normalized reactance/susceptance curves are reported
The Relations between Planes
inductive reactance

capacitive reactance
short circuit open circuit

matched load

reactive load
resistive load
Exercise:
Indicate on the Smith Chart the position of the following
normalized impedance:
• z1 = 0.7 + j1.5
• z2 = 0.6 – j0.5
• z3 = 2.3 – j0.3
• z4 = + j0.8
