txlineDelayLossy

Create delay lossy transmission line

    Description

    Use thetxlineDelayLossyobject to create a delay lossy transmission line. You can also use thetxlineDelayLossyobject to model a delay lossy transmission line in an RF system using therfbudgetobject or theRF Budget Analyzer应用程序。

    Creation

    Description

    dlytxline= txlineDelayLossycreates a default delay lossy transmission line object.

    example

    dlytxline= txlineDelayLossy(Name,Value)setsPropertiesof the delay lossy transmission line using one or more name-value arguments. For example,dlytxline = txlineDelayLossy('Z0',75)creates a delay lossy transmission line with an impedance of75ohms.

    Properties

    Examples

    collapse all

    Design a coaxial cable of0.5meters in length as a lossy transmission line with the characteristic impedance of48ohms.

    dlossy = txlineDelayLossy("Z0",48,"LineLength",500e-3);

    Calculate the noise figure at1GHz.

    nf = noisefigure(dlossy,1e9)
    nf = 0.0013

    Algorithms

    The delay lossy transmission line object calculates the S-parameters for the specified frequencies. This calculation is based on the delay line's line length, resistance, and time delay. The S-parameters are calculated using the equation given.

    S 11 = 0 S 12 = e - p S 21 = e - p S 22 = 0

    Here, p = α a + (i × β) .ɑainpis the attenuation coefficient andβis the wave number.

    The attenuation coefficient,ɑa,is related to the loss,ɑ,by

    α a = (linelength × resistance) (2Z)

    and the wave numberβis related to the time delay,D,by

    β = 2 × π × f × D

    wherefis the frequency range specified in the S-parameters input argument.
