THE CONSTRUCTION OF A TWO-SECTION TRANSFORMER HAVING A TOTAL LENGTH LESS THAN A QUARTER WAVELENGTH,
Abstract
An experiment was performed to verify the authors' new concept that a two-section transformer may be designed in which the length of each section is less than a quarter wave length and may be treated as an independent variable. A two-section J-band waveguide transformer, having an arbitrarily chosen total length of one-fifth of a guide wavelength, was designed to match a 4:1 impedance mismatch at 5500 Mc. The design procedure is described in detail, including corrections for capacitive reactances introduced by each step discontinuity in the waveguide. The experimental results are in excellent argeement with the design objective. (Author)
