🔍 Key Concepts

• Standing waves and what causes them on a transmission line • Relationship between load impedance, line characteristic impedance (ZO), and reflections • What it means when all energy is delivered to the load vs when some energy is reflected

💭 Think About

• Think about what must be true at the load for there to be no reflections on the line. Under that condition, would you see standing waves? • If you observe a standing wave pattern, what does that tell you about the match or mismatch between the line impedance (ZO) and the load impedance (ZL)? • Which option describes a situation where not all the power gets into the load and some comes back toward the source?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which choice describes a perfect impedance match between the line and the load, and ask: would standing waves exist then? • Decide which answer option explicitly or implicitly indicates that reflected power is present. • Make sure the correct choice is the one that directly connects standing waves to incomplete absorption of power at the load, not to perfect matching.
