The output impedance of a power divider in a microwave network is measured to be 50 ohms, and the impedance of the next stage is 30 ohms. This level of mismatch can result in significant errors in sensitive instruments such as vector network analyzers and total power radiometers. Use the methods you learned from this module, design three different kinds of matching networks (quarter wave transformer, four-section binomial transformer, and four-section Chebyshev transformer) to reduce the total reflection coefficient so that the SWR is less than 1.25. Design your matching networks for a center frequency of 5.8 GHz. For a quarter wave transformer, a four-section binomial transformer and a four-section Chebyshev transformer, calculate the characteristic impedance for each section and fill in the table below: Quarter wave transformer Binomial transformer Chebyshev transformer O The output impedance of a power divider in a microwave network is measured to be 50 ohms, and the impedance of the next stage is 30 ohms.
