مدى دقتها
Exact arithmetic on ideal, lossless parts, with Z_L held at its value at f across the band.

Real parts add loss, self-resonance and pad parasitics, and a real antenna moves across the band. The measured Z_L usually dominates, because it changes with the board, the ground clearance and the enclosure.

Circuit

المبدأ

An L network is two reactive parts, one in series and one in shunt, that turn a load impedance into the source resistance at one frequency. This page finds every L network that matches ZL to Rs, rounds each part to a stock value, and checks the VSWR the stock parts give across your band. ZL is the load at f, as measured, held constant across the band.

Series part next to the load
X=±RL(Rs−RL)−XLB=±1RsRs−RLRLX = \pm\sqrt{R_L (R_s - R_L)} - X_L \qquad B = \pm\frac{1}{R_s}\sqrt{\frac{R_s - R_L}{R_L}}
Pozar, for RL ≤ Rs, with the same sign in both.
Shunt part next to the load
Rp=RL2+XL2RLQ=RpRs−1B=±QRp+XLRL2+XL2X=±QRsR_p = \frac{R_L^{2} + X_L^{2}}{R_L} \qquad Q = \sqrt{\frac{R_p}{R_s} - 1} \qquad B = \pm\frac{Q}{R_p} + \frac{X_L}{R_L^{2} + X_L^{2}} \qquad X = \pm Q R_s
For Rp ≥ Rs, with the same sign in both. The load is taken in parallel form and the shunt part first cancels its susceptance. This gives the same B and X as Pozar's closed form.
Parts from the reactances
L=Xω,  C=−1ωXC=Bω,  L=−1ωBω=2πfL = \frac{X}{\omega},\; C = \frac{-1}{\omega X} \qquad C = \frac{B}{\omega},\; L = \frac{-1}{\omega B} \qquad \omega = 2\pi f
A positive X is a series inductor and a negative one a series capacitor. A positive B is a shunt capacitor and a negative one a shunt inductor. Each part is rounded to the nearest value in the series.
Input impedance with the stock parts
Zin=11ZL+jX+jBZin=11ZL+jB+jXZ_{in} = \frac{1}{\frac{1}{Z_L + jX} + jB} \qquad Z_{in} = \frac{1}{\frac{1}{Z_L} + jB} + jX
The series part next to the load, then the shunt part next to the load. X and B are worked out again at each frequency from the stock parts, with ZL held at its value at f.
Reflection and VSWR
Γ=Zin−RsZin+RsVSWR=1+∣Γ∣1−∣Γ∣Γ = \frac{Z_{in} - R_s}{Z_{in} + R_s} \qquad \t{VSWR} = \frac{1 + |Γ|}{1 - |Γ|}
Pozar. The worst VSWR is the largest over 101 points spread evenly across the band.
Return loss and mismatch loss
RL=−20log⁡10∣Γ∣ML=−10log⁡10(1−∣Γ∣2)\t{RL} = -20\log_{10}|Γ| \qquad \t{ML} = -10\log_{10}\left(1 - |Γ|^{2}\right)
Pozar: the load takes 1 − |Γ|² of the power the source offers. Mismatch loss is that fraction as a loss.
Node Q
Q=RsRL−1    (series next to the load)Q=RpRs−1    (shunt next to the load)Q = \sqrt{\frac{R_s}{R_L} - 1} \;\; \t{(series next to the load)} \qquad Q = \sqrt{\frac{R_p}{R_s} - 1} \;\; \t{(shunt next to the load)}
Bowick. The higher the Q, the narrower the band the network matches.

تفاصيل إضافية

Which networks exist

With the series part next to the load, a match exists when RL ≤ Rs. With the shunt part next to the load, it exists when the load's parallel resistance Rp is at least Rs. Both can hold, and each form has two signs, so a load has up to four L networks (Pozar). The page lists each one once.

Low-pass or high-pass

A series inductor with a shunt capacitor is low-pass, and also attenuates a transmitter's harmonics. A series capacitor with a shunt inductor is high-pass, and keeps DC off the load. Every load has one of each. The others use two capacitors or two inductors. Best is the network whose stock parts give the lowest worst VSWR in the band.

Bandwidth

An L network's Q is set by the two resistances it joins, so its bandwidth is not a free choice. Bowick gives three-part π and T networks for a Q of your own choosing.

Stock parts and the board

Rounding each part to its series moves the match off f, and the worst VSWR across the band shows what that costs. Below about 0.5 nH or 0.5 pF a part is comparable to its pads and a short trace, so the board sets the match as much as the part does. The 0.5 nH and 0.5 pF of the page's note are a design choice.

ZL is one measured point, held constant across the band. Measure it on the board with the pads fitted, fit the parts, then measure S11 again and tune.
