Why do you expect an infinity line to have an input impedance equal to the caractarictic impedance?
The characteristic impedance of a transmission line is the ratio of voltage to current of the propagating electrical wave. The line input impedance is the result of the superposition of forward and reverse, or reflected waves when the terminating impedance is not adapted. If the line is infinite, nothing returns from its end and only the forward wave exits. The voltage to current ratio is then the line characteristic impedance. Remark that the same occurs when the line is terminated by its characteristic impedance, the forward wave finds a perfect continuity to the load and no energy is reflected back to the line. A matched line is like an infinite line when looked from the input terminals. Long real lossy lines also act as infinite lines for the energy of the reflected wave is dissipated along the line before reaching the source.
What are the importance of impedance matching in amplifiers?
Two reasons. 1...When impedance of source and destination match, power transfer is maximum. 2...If a long transmission line is involved, the characteristic impedance of the line must match the destination impedance, or reflections will occur on the line.
What is characteristics impedance?
The characteristic impedance or surge impedance belongs to a uniform transmission line, usually written Z0. It is the ratio of the amplitudes of a single pair of voltage and current waves propagating along the line in the absence of reflections.
What is the purpose of having a low impedance for transmission lines?
in order to reduce the transmission line losses we need low impedance...Low impedance also improves power transfer capacity of the line..
What is the unit length impedance of panther conductor in transmission line?

How do you practically realize the design of a double-stub impedance match using microstrip?
microstrip line is unbalanced line so it works in same way as other unbalanced line. so in double stub, the microstrip line forms the reactance wanted to match. Hey what happened to methods involving the schmidt chart?
When compared with stripline the major disadvantage of microstrip line?
microstrip circuits can radiate

What will happen to the input signal when the transmission line is terminated by its characteristic impedence?
When the input signal to a transmission line is terminated by its characteristic impedance then the signal gets absorbed in the terminating impedance itself and is not reflected back along the line. Thus, no standing waves are produced in the transmission line.

When a generator of internal impedance and operating at 1gigahertz feeds a load via a coaxial line of characteristic impedance 50 ohm then the voltage wave ratio on the feed line is?
For a voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) of 1.0, the source impedance, load impedance, and transmission line characteristic impedance must be matched. To calculate actual VSWR, you need to know these three values. You're question only supplies one (50 ohm line). Review wikipedia's writeup on "standing wave ratio" to glean an understanding of what you're asking about.
For a quarter wavelength ideal transmission line of characteristic impedance 50 ohms and load impedance 100 ohms the input impedance will be?
50 in parallel with 100 ohms. Dza10 answer: Rin = 50^2 /100

What is the physical significance of the impedance?
Impedance represents the total opposition of a circuit to the flow of alternating current. It consists of resistance, which dissipates energy, and reactance, which stores and releases energy. Impedance determines how a circuit responds to varying frequencies and is crucial for the design and analysis of electrical systems.
What is the dominant mode of propagation in microstrip line in low frequency approximation?
quasi-TEM
What is the difference between a microstrip line and a stripline?
Microstrip line is a transmission line where the conductor is on the top layer of a dielectric substrate, while the ground plane is below the substrate. Stripline, on the other hand, has the signal conductor sandwiched between two layers of dielectric material with ground planes on both sides. Stripline typically offers better isolation and higher performance compared to microstrip due to the shielding effect of the dielectric layers.
