Also I am interested in check other values and conditions in your other article (first part) with 45 degree line. Sorry, I forgot to comment on this. If the line length is fixed at 45 degrees, the reflected wave arrives back at the 50 ohm source resistor 90 degrees out of phase with the source's forward wave. When two waves are 90 degrees out of phase, there is zero interference between them because cos(90) = 0 and the interference term in the following equation disappears. Ptot = P1 + P2 + 2*SQRT(P1*P2)cos(theta) There is no re-reflection of the reflected wave from the 50 ohm source resistor because it matches the coax Z0. There is no redistribution of constructive/destructive interference energy because there is zero interference. Therefore, for the special case where Vfor is 90 degrees out of phase with Vref at the source resistor, all of the reflected power will be dissipated in the source resistor. If the interference at the source resistor is constructive, i.e. less than 90 degrees difference between Vfor and Vref, the power dissipated in the source resistor will be all of the reflected power plus some of the source power. If the interference at the source resistor between Vfor and Vref is destructive, i.e. between 90 degrees and 180 degrees, some of the reflected power will be redistributed (by wave cancellation) back toward the load. Note that the I and Q method of transferring two streams of information on the same carrier relies on this same no interference (at 90 degrees) concept. -- 73, Cecil, w5dxp.com |
