Num9 DoublyStub (0.15λ) Zl= 00-j200Ω Zo=100Ω

A double shunt stub matching network is to match a load impedance 100-j200 to a line having characteristic impedance 100 ohm. Assume the distance between the stub as 0.15 λ. Calculate the length of the stub

\[
Z_L = 100 - j200\,\Omega
\]

\[
Z_0 = 100\,\Omega
\]

Step 1: Normalized the load impedance by dividing it by characteristic impedance of line. Plot Zn in the Smith Chart. Construct SWR circle for load line recording the wave length at Yn.

Zn = 1 - j2Ω

\[
Y_N = 0.2 + j0.4
\]

\[
\text{WTG}_B = 0.063\lambda
\]

Step 2: Construct 0.15λ Circle

\[
\text{For the inner circle, the initial distance is } 0.25\lambda.
\]

\[
\text{To move } 0.15\lambda,\text{ the required rotation is}
\]

\[
0.25\lambda + 0.15\lambda = 0.40\lambda
\]

\[
\text{Therefore, rotate } 0.40\lambda \text{ anticlockwise on the inner circle.}
\]

\[
\text{For the outer circle, the initial distance is } 0.25\lambda.
\]

\[
\text{To move } 0.15\lambda,\text{ the required rotation is}
\]

\[
0.25\lambda - 0.15\lambda = 0.10\lambda
\]

\[
\text{Therefore, rotate } 0.10\lambda \text{ anticlockwise on the outer circle.}
\]
