🔍 Key Concepts

• Quarter-wave (λ/4) matching line used as an impedance transformer between a transmission line and an antenna • The definition of surge impedance / characteristic impedance (Z₀) of a line • The mathematical idea of using a square root when combining two impedances for matching

💭 Think About

• If a λ/4 matching section is placed between a line and an antenna, how should its impedance relate to the line impedance and the antenna impedance so power transfer is maximized? • Look at the answer choices: which one suggests a relationship where the matching line impedance somehow sits ‘between’ the antenna impedance and the line impedance (not just multiplied or divided by random constants)? • Think about whether a proper formula for Z₀ should have dimensions (ohms) that make sense: does squaring without a square root leave you with units of ohms² rather than ohms?

✅ Before You Answer

• Check which option, if any, reflects that the characteristic impedance of the quarter-wave section is based on both the line impedance and the antenna impedance. • Verify that the formula you pick results in an answer with units of ohms, not ohms squared or a unitless number. • Confirm that any constant factors (like 0.25, 1, or C.14) are actually used in standard λ/4 matching formulas—if you’ve never seen such a constant in the classic formula, be cautious of that choice.
