Trang 2In this laboratory experiment, you will use SPICE to study sinusoidal waves on losslesstransmission lines Our goal is for you to become familiar with the basic behavior of wavesreflecting from loads in transmission lines, and compare the simulations with numericcalculations and the Smith Chart
2.1 Basic Transmission Line Model
There is a standard lossless transmission line model T, which is specified by severalparameters We will need to specify two of the parameters:
Z0, the characteristic impedance
TD, the time delay, which is the length of the line in time units The
length of the line L is related to the time delay through
where up is the phase velocity of waves on the transmission line
As we saw in lecture and in our text, the phase velocity and characteristic impedance may bederived from the “lumped element” model of the transmission line With L’ the inductance perunit length, and C’ the capacitance per unit length, we have

+ It is the series inductance per unit length, it appears from the shape of transmissionline Inductance per meter represents the self-inductance of the two conductors per a meter, italso represents the stored magnetic energy per a meter of transmission line
- Capacitance per meter ( F/m ) :
+ It is the shunt capacitance per unit length, it is due to the close proximity of the twoconductors, it also represents the stored electric energy per a meter of transmission line

2.2 A SPICE model of a transmission line problem
Using SPICE, create a (matched) Thevenin source VAC with 1 Volt amplitude and 50 Ω source impedance, leading to a transmission line model T, terminated in a 100 Ω load Edit the transmission line so that it has a characteristic impedance of 50 Ω Also, create labels Input and Load at the ends of the transmission lines, so that you can measure the voltages conveniently

One way to make this easier is to use a parameter for TD Place the special part PARAM Double click on it and then on New Column… Call it delay and set it to 5ns Assign {delay} (with the curly braces) to TD on the transmission line When you create your simulation profile, select the parametric sweep as an option Choose Global Parameter with a parameter of delay Set the sweep range and increment based on your TD calculations from above Under “General Settings” set the sweep Range from Start Frequency: 200Meg to End Frequency: 200Meg and increment Total Points: 1

- To examine the change of input voltage as a function of length, we can examine thechange of input voltage as a function of Time Delay
We can simulate the input voltage as a function of Time Delay because Time Delay and Length
of transmission line relate together from the formular : TD L
With up is a constant, L
u p
increases n-fold as well as TD increases n-fold So, examining the change of the input voltage as
a function of TD is like doing this with L (length of transmission line)
f 200.10
So, we can establish a parameter in pspice with 0 at start value and 5ns at end value Inaddition, we examine L at the points which are λ/16-equidistant together Therefore, increment inparametric sweep is 0,3125ns like above value (question 5)

Question 11: Plot the voltage magnitude at Load as a function of length How does the
voltage change with length? From this, how do you think the power delivered to the load willchange with length?
The magnitude of Load Voltage does not change with length
From this, I think the power delivered to the load will not change with length, too
