Characteristic Impedance for Incident Waves Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Characteristic Impedance = Incident Voltage/Incident Current
Z₀ = V_i/I_i
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Characteristic Impedance - (Measured in Ohm) - The characteristic impedance of a uniform transmission line is the ratio of the amplitudes of voltage and current of a single wave propagating along the line during transient condition.
Incident Voltage - (Measured in Volt) - The Incident Voltage on the transmission line is equal to half the generator voltage.
Incident Current - (Measured in Ampere) - Incident Current is the Current wave that is traveling from the sending end to the receiving end of the Transmission line during any transient condition.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Incident Voltage: 6 Volt --> 6 Volt No Conversion Required
Incident Current: 12 Ampere --> 12 Ampere No Conversion Required
