Solution

To answer this question, we need to use the Smith chart and the given normalized load impedance zL = 0.4 + 1.4j.

  1. Plot the normalized load impedance on the Smith chart. The point will be in the upper half of the chart because the imaginary part of the impedance is positive.

  2. Draw a line from the center of the chart to the point representing the load impedance. The length of this line is the magnitude of the reflection coefficient |ΓL|, and the angle it makes with the positive real axis is the phase angle theta.

  3. Read the values of |ΓL| and theta from the chart. The exact values will depend on the accuracy of your chart and your ability to read it, but they should be approximately |ΓL| = 0.6745 and theta = 26.5 degrees.

  4. The voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) is given by the formula VSWR = (1 + |ΓL|) / (1 - |ΓL|). Substituting the value of |ΓL| from step 3 gives VSWR = (1 + 0.6745) / (1 - 0.6745) = 5.12, which is approximately 5.

  5. The VSWR does not change as we move along the line toward the generator. It is a property of the load and the line, and is not affected by the position on the line.

Therefore, the correct answers are e. The load reflection coefficient is |ΓL| = 0.6745 and theta =26.5 deg, and d. The voltage standing wave ratio is VSWR=5.
