LoadMatching
What if the load cannot be made equal to Z
o
for some other
reasons? Then, we need to build a matching network so that the
source effectively sees a match load.

Typically we only want to use lossless devices such as
capacitors, inductors, transmission lines, in our matching
network so that we do not dissipate any power in the network
and deliver all the available power to the load.

ImpedanceandAdmittanceSmithCharts
For a matching network that contains elements
connected in series and parallel, we will need two
types of Smith charts
impedance Smith chart
admittance Smith Chart
The admittance Smith chart is the impedance
Smith chart rotated 180 degrees.
We could use one Smith chart and flip the reflection
coefficient vector 180 degrees when switching between
a series configuration to a parallel configuration.

Match 100O load to a 50O system at 100MHz
A 100O resistor in parallel would do the trick, but of
the power would be dissipated in the matching network.
We want to use only lossless elements such as inductors
and capacitors so we dont dissipate any power in the
matching network

Summary
Impedance matching is necessary to:
reduce VSWR
obtain maximum power transfer
Lump reactive elements and a single
stub can be used.
A quarter-wave line can also be used to
transform resistance values, and act as
an impedance inverter.
These matching network types are
narrow-band: they are designed to
operate at a single frequency only.
