Generator and Load Mismatches

The document discusses the concepts of generator and load mismatches in transmission lines, including load matching, generator matching, and conjugate matching for maximum power transfer. It explains the importance of input impedance and the conditions under which power is optimally delivered to the load. Additionally, it highlights that achieving zero reflection or conjugate matching does not necessarily ensure the highest transmission efficiency.

Transmission line circuit for mismatched load and generator

•Transmission line circuit with arbitrary generator and


load impedance Zg and Zl

• Both the generator and load are mismatched, multiple


• The input impedance looking into the terminated
transmission line from the generator end is

• The voltage on the line:

Z g  Z0
g 
Z g  Z0

1  l

• Power delivered to the load:

• Load is matched to the line


Zl = Z0, Γl = 0, SWR = 1, Zin = Z0 and the power delivered
to the load is
B. Generator is matched to loaded line
• The load impedance Zl and / or the transmission
line parameters βl, Zo are chosen to make the input
impedance Zo =Zin

• power delivered to the load is


C. Conjugate matching
• If Zg is fixed, we vary the input impedance Zin Until
we achieve the maximum power delivered to the load

• Solving equation (1) & (2) simultaneously for Rin and Xin
gives
Rin = Rg, Xin = -Xg,
or Zin = Zg*
• This condition is known as conjugate matching, and
results in maximum power transfer to the load, for fixed
generator impedance. The power delivered is

• Finally, note that neither matching for zero reflection (Zl


= Z0), nor conjugate matching (Zin = Zg*), necessary
yields a system with the best efficiency.
