Ans:
“The needs for impedance matching in transmission lines
are as follows,
1. Impedance matching helps in transforming maximum
power from source to load.
2, Itminimizes the losses or distortions that may occur in
transmission lines.
3, It reduces the reflections and formation of standing
waves in transmission lines.
4, Italso improves the signal to noise ratio of the system.
5. Impedance matching reduces the distortions, amplitude
and phase errors of various systems.
‘Therefore, it can be concluded that the impedance match-
ing techniques enhance the performance of a communication
system.

Ans: Model Paper, 010(0)
Consider two waves travelling on a transmission line
with same frequency but in opposite direction. When these
waves collide with each other, a standing wave pattern of
voltage and current is generated i.e, the incident and reflected
waves together form a standing wave (S).
Standing Wave Ratio
Standing wave ratio is defined as the ratio of magnitudes of
‘maximum voltage or current to magnitudes of minimum voltage
(or current. It is abbreviated as SWR and denoted by ‘S”.585)

Double stub matching is a impedance matching
technique in which two stubs are employed to overcome the
drawbacks of a single stub matching technique.
Inthis technique, the location of the two stubs are fixed
and ther lengths are varied to achieve impedance matching in
the systems.
‘The first stub of length is located ata distance d, from
the load and the second stub of length /, is located at a distance
di, from the first stub as shown in figure.
