1 Introduction
Transmission line theory bridges the gap between field analysis and basic circuit theory and therefore is of significant importance in the analysis of microwave circuits and devices
The key difference between circuit theory and transmission line theory is electrical size
At low frequencies, an electrical circuit is completely characterized by the electrical parameters like resistance, inductance etc and the physical size of the electrical components plays no role
in the circuit analysis
As the frequency increases however, the size of the components becomes important The voltage and currents exist in the form of waves Even a change in the length of a simple connecting wire may alter the behavior of the circuit
Trang 41 Introduction
The circuit approach then has to be re-investigated with inclusion
of the space into the analysis This approach is then called the transmission line approach
Although the primary objective of a transmission line is to carry electromagnetic energy efficiently from one location to other, they find wide applications in high frequency circuit design
Also at high frequencies, the transit time of the signals can not be ignored In the era of high speed computers, where data rates are approaching to few Gb/sec, the phenomena related to the electromagnetic waves, like the bit distortion, signal reflection, impedance matching play a vital role in high speed communication networks

1 Introduction
Chapter 1: Transmission Line Theory
Trang 6 A transmission line is basically a two-conductor line for
guiding the signal power from one point to another
A transmission line is a distributed parameter network, where
voltages and currents can vary in magnitude and phase over its length
While ordinary circuit analysis deals with lumped elements,
where voltage and current do not vary appreciably over the
physical dimension of the elements
TLs are analyzed using transmission-line theory or Distributed-circuit theory not traditional lumped-circuit theory

Chapter 1: Transmission Line Theory
Trang 8R, L, G, and C are per-unit-length quantities defined as follows:
R = series resistance per unit length, for both conductors, in Ω/m
L = series inductance per unit length, for both conductors, in H/m
G = shunt conductance per unit length, in S/m
C = shunt capacitance per unit length, in F/m
Series inductance L represents the total self-inductance of the two conductors,
Shunt capacitance C is due to the close proximity of the two conductors
Series resistance R represents the resistance due to the finite conductivity of the individual conductors
Shunt conductance G is due to dielectric loss in the material between the conductors
R and G, therefore, represent loss

In communication systems: Z0 = 50 Ω
Telecommunication: Z0 = 75 Ω - Why 50Ω or 75Ω ?

6 Lossless and Low-loss Transmission Lines
In practice, transmission lines have losses due to finite conductivity and/or lossy dielectric, but these losses are usually small
In most practical microwave:
Loss may be neglected Lossless T.L
Loss may be assumed to be very small Low-loss T.L

6 Lossless and Low-loss Transmission Lines
When the loss is small, some approximations can be made to simplify the expressions for the general transmission line parameters
of γ = α + jβ and Z0

6 Lossless and Low-loss Transmission Lines
Low-loss Transmission Line:
For a low-loss line both conductor and dielectric loss will be small, and we can assume that R << ωL and G >>ωC Then, RG << ω2LC
