Attempt 3 questions only – 20 marks per question. (NB: where applicable you must include rough-work calculations to obtain full marks for these questions.)
[4 marks] (b) Starting with a 1.0 mm diameter solid copper wire you are to design a 75 ohm coaxial T-Line using mica as the dielectric. Determine (i) the inner diameter of the outer copper conductor; (ii) the propagation velocity of the line; and (iii) the approximate attenuation in dB/m at a frequency of 1 MHz. [6 marks] (c) The impedance and propagation constants at 100 MHz for a transmission line are measured as
parameters of this T-line. [5 marks]
(d) A 2.4 GHz signal is launched on a 1.5 m length of T-Line terminated in a matched load. If it takes 6.25 ns to reach the load and suffers 1.2 dB of loss find the propagation constant..
[5 marks]
Question 2 (a) Derive the differential phasor form of (i) Gauss's Law, and (ii) Ampere's Circuit Law. [4 marks]
(b) Given a UPW incident from medium (^1) σ= 0,^ μr =^1 .0,^ εr =^25 , to medium 2 σ=^0.^ 0080,^ μr =^1 .0,^ εr =^81 calculate the reflection and transmission coefficients and the standing wave ration (SWR) at 1 kHz, 1 MHz and 1 GHz. [6 marks]
(c) A 100 MHz TE polarized wave with amplitude 1.0 V/m is obliquely incident from air (z < 0)
40 °. Calculate (i) the angle of transmission; (ii) the reflection and transmission coefficients, and (iii) the incident, reflected and transmitted fields. [10 marks]
