4. 1 Transmission line and principles
Matching Network • minimum power loss in the feed line & maximum power delivery • linearizing the frequency response of the circuit • improving the S/N ratio of the system for sensitive receiver components (lownoise amplifier, etc. ) • reducing amplitude & phase errors in a power distribution network (such as antenna array-feed network)
Matching Network Factors in the selection of matching networks • complexity - bandwidth requirement (such as broadband design) • adjustability - implementation (transmission line, chip R/L/C elements. . ) 5
S 11, Reflection Coefficient, and Return Loss Reflection Coefficient Return Loss Should yield +ve value a (S 11) b High RL, less reflection *Antenna is one port 6

Microstipline matching techniques • From discrete component to microstrip line • Single stub • Double stub 16
Microstipline matching techniques • Quarter Wavelength Matching Network • Only used for pure-resistance matching Similar like what we did in Lab 3 Will calculate Rin or ZL first, then Z 1 17
