"Where does he (Terman) equate phase with direction?" From page 90 of Terman`s 1955 edition: Bottom of the page; "Transmission Line with Short-circuited Load. Where the load end of the line is short-circuited, that is ZL=0, reference to Eq.(4-14) shows the reflection coeficient has a value of -1.0 on an angle of 0-deg. = +1.0 on an angle of 180-deg. As in the open-circuited case, the reflected wave has an amplitude equal to the amplitude of the incident wave. However, the reflection takes place with reversal in phase of voltage and without change in phase of the current." I`m a lousy typist but tried to make an exact copy of part of the page. I assume you agree the incident and reflected waves travel in opposite directions in Terman`s example. Best regards, Richard Harrison, KB5WZI |

"Again, what is the vector of direction for the light bulb?" Electromagnetic waves include light and heat whicjh have extremely short wavelengths. The light bulb may not be a perfect point source but the waves travel away from the source with the velocity of light and consist of electric and magnetic fields that are at right angles to each other and also at right angles to the direction of travel. Wave energy is divided 50-50 between the electric and magnetic fields. Many frequencies (colors) make up the radiation from a light bulb. Much more heat is radiated than visible light. In a radio wave the essential properties are frequency, intensity, direction of travel, and plane of polarization, For the constituents of light bulb radiation, it is the same. 300 million m/sec is the velocity and this equals the product of frequency X wavelength. Emissions of a light bulb are of extremely high frequency but of extremely short wavelenggth too. All points on a wavefront are equidistant from the source and emerged simultaneouslly so they share the same phase.. From a point source light bulb we would be in the far field. The field is transverse. The power flow (J.D. Kraus` words), or Poynting vector, is entirely radial. Best regards, Richard Harrison, KB5WZI |

"To obtain a complete cancellation it requires identical powers with identical but opposing phases." Yes. That is why closely spaced balanced transmission lines have no significant radiation. Best regards, Richard Harrison, KB5WZI |

E^for is proportional to Vfor which is what the Bird samples. H^for is proportional to Ifor which is what the Bird samples. Within a 50 ohm environment that yields forward power. Same for reflected power. The Bird does not generate a vector cross product. There is nothing inside the instrument that's capable of doing such a thing.

The difference is that nobody is trying to create a complete distortion of the way a speedometer works. I am not criticizing the Bird 43 at all. I own one, and use it regularly. It is a clever concept, well executed and with lots of good features. My objection is against the "other Bird 43" - not the real hardware, but a piece of vaporware that is called a "Bird" but only exists in someone's imagination. Somehow, this imagined instrument can truly *measure* how much power is flowing in the forward and reverse directions, and those measurements can be used to "prove" some point about transmission line theory. The real-life Bird 43 cannot do that. Its indications of "forward and reflected watts" are only printing on the meter scale. They come from calculations that are totally dependent on transmission line theory, so they cannot be used to prove anything *about* that subject. You cannot prove a theory by using evidence that depends on the theory you're trying to prove. That is just simple logic. The real Bird 43 is a good and useful piece of test equipment... but nobody should buy that "other" one. -- 73 from Ian G/GM3SEK 'In Practice' columnist for RadCom (RSGB) http://www.ifwtech.co.uk/g3sek |

Entirely ignoring all these other trivial details, that cancellation is incomplete in and of necessity for real or imagined initial conditions. That's not true, Richard. If zero reflected energy reaches the source in a system with reflections, a Z0-match has been achieved. For a Z0-match to be achieved, 100% wave cancellation is necessary. For all the nearly perfectly Z0-matched systems out there, near perfect wave cancellation of reflected waves has been achieved. -- 73, Cecil http://www.qsl.net/w5dxp ----== Posted via Newsfeeds.Com - Unlimited-Uncensored-Secure Usenet News==---- http://www.newsfeeds.com The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! 100,000 Newsgroups ---= East/West-Coast Server Farms - Total Privacy via Encryption =--- |

"In your previous statement you said it "performs multiplication" which is totally false." It gives the right answers so it is not false. Multiplication is the process of finding the product resulting from the addition of a given number by a certain number of times as there are units in another number. It`s the product that counts, not the way you get there. An amplifier with a certain gain is fine. A lever that trades force for distance is fine. A digital machine, having no hardwired multiply and divide circuit and only works with ones and zeros is fine. The only important thing is you supply representative inputs to a device and it gives you the correct product of the numbers as its outpot. Best regards, Richard Harrison, KB5WZI |

"The unintended consequence of this (exposure to white light) is that it suppresses the eye`s ability to perceive red light at night (why you see them (red lights) used in dark rooms and WWII movies--..)" I was in WW-2 and confirm that aboard my ship our chartroom (the compartment with an opening tp tje outside) indeed was illuminated with red lamps so that we would not be blind when we stepped outside. We were told that we used our cones in the daytime and our rods at night. How could I ever have remembered that? From Lincoln`s Reference: Glare is said to reduce the ability to see, and hastens fatigue. Glare is wasted since it lowers the effectiveness of useful light. Glare is high light energy over a measurable period of time from above normal angles of vision (30 to 90-degrees above the vertical). I think this means you don`t want a bright light shining in your eyes. It`s glaring and impairs vision for awhile. I wasn`t a signalman but I noticed our signaling light was fitted at night with a red filter called the "Nan-gear". Our phonetic alphabet in those days went: able, baker, charlie, dog---nancy.

THE VOLTAGE SAMPLE IS DIRECTLY PROPORTIONAL TO THE E-FIELD AND THE CURRENT SAMPLE IS DIRECTLY PROPORTIONAL TO THE H-FIELD. Given the assumptions about the boundary conditions in which the Bird is placed, the Bird is INDEED indicating the value of the Poynting Vector no matter how indirectly. IF IT WASN'T, BIRD COULD NOT REMAIN IN BUSINESS. That's what Bird Wattmeters do - indicate the magnitude and direction of the Poynting Vector - assuming the instrument is properly used. Pz+ = E^for x H^for = Bird wattmeter reading for slug == Pz- = E^ref x H^ref = Bird wattmeter reading for slug == This is all covered in "Fields and Waves ..." by Ramo and Whinnery. I have NOT introduced anything new. I have simply tied together some loose ends from all the references available. Anyone with an open and logical mind could have done exactly the same thing. No multiplication is involved. On the contrary, non-linear calibration of linear meters is an old technique for analog multiplication. I assumed you knew that already, but maybe you are not that old. When I was in college, we put a '1' mark at one milliamp. We put a '4' mark at 2 milliamps. We put a '16' mark at 4 milliamps. It's a very, very, very old technique for analog multiplication. The calibration to indicate power is performed ENTIRELY on the meter scale. EXACTLY!!! YOU GOT IT!!! THAT'S ANALOG MULTIPLICATION!!! I did the exact same thing for analog multiplication when I was in college. Non-linear calibration of linear meters is a very, very, very old analog computing technique. Do you even remember analog computers? If not, I can loan you my analog computing college textbook. It is an analog calculator. No, it isn't. Yes, it is. I learned all those analog techniques while in college at Texas A&M in the 50's. Maybe you should review a very old reference on the subject. When I was in college, analog computers were more popular than digital computers. Op-amps using tubes were more numerous than anything digital (and the Texas A&M mascot was a T-Rex).
