6. Define and explain the meaning of the term standing-wave ratio, what is the
formula for it if the load is purely resistive? Why is a high value of SWR often
undesirable?
7. Explain fully, with such sketches as are applicable, the concept of impedance
inversion by a quarter-wave line.
8. For what purposes can short lengths of open or short circuited transmission
line be used? What is a stub? Why are short circuited stubs preferred to open
circuited ones?
9. When matching a load to a line by means of a stub and a quarter wave
transformer (both situated at the load), a certain procedure is followed. What
is this procedure? Why are admittances used in connection with stub
matching? What does a stub actually do?
10.What ia a smith chart? What are its applications?
11.Why must impedances (or admittances) be normalized before being plotted
on a standard Smith chart?
12.Describe the double stub matcher, the procedure used for matching with it,
and the applications of the device.
13.What is a directional coupler? For what purposes might it be used?
14.Define the terms directivity and directional coupling as used with directional
couplers, and explain their significance.
15.What is a balun? What is a typical application of such a device?
