3 DISCUSSION
1)
There is the relative permittivity in the theoretical equation. Here it is given as 2.3. But during the
practical, it may be changed due to the long usage of the instruments.
For the theoretical characteristic impedance, inner and outer diameters are used as 0.42mm and
1.52mm. But in the practical, it can be changed also due to long usage of the instruments.
The measured resistance (R), inductance (L), capacitance (C) values can be changed. Environmental
conditions, human errors such as mistakes when recording and writing the observations are the
reasons for that.
The coaxial cable length is appeared as 50m in the instrument. But it also may be changed due to long
usage of the instrument.
2)
The measured input impedance is 38.75 Ω, while the input impedance of the function generator is
specified as 50 Ω. This results in an impedance mismatch of 11.25 Ω.
When the connected load matches Z0Z_0, the reflection coefficient becomes zero, as described by
the following equation:
𝑍 −𝑍
Γ𝐿 = 𝑍𝐿 + 𝑍𝑜
𝐿 𝑜
In this case, there is no reflection wave, which means the system behaves like an infinite transmission
line. The forward wave continues to propagate without any interruption, and no backward wave is
generated.

According to the lab manual, the graph is expected to be linear. However, based on the practical
observations, the graph is not perfectly linear but is approximately close. This graph is illustrated in
Figure 1. The variations in the measuring point distances may occur due to prolonged usage of the
instruments. Additionally, the voltage values might also be affected by environmental factors and
human errors, such as mistakes in recording and documenting observations.
