Design a multi-section quarter-wavelength transformer from 2 to 10 GHz to match a sloed to 50 0 (Z.). The transformer needs to provide a reflection coefficient of better than 13 d throughout the band. You will need to make the following choices: Number of sections (smaller is better but needs to meet the specifications). Chebyshev or Butterworth design for any other suitable approximation you may find in literature) Microstrip or CPW lines Simulate this matching network in QuesStudio assuming a) first ideal transmission lines, and b) your choice of microstrip or cow lines For the microstrip or cow line, assume the following parameters thickness: 1.6 mm; metal thickness: 17 um; metal conductivity: 2 x 10's/m, dielectric constant 4.35; dielectric loss: 0.01. In your project report, please provide a Two design schematics (one for the ideal lines and one for the realistic anes) from QucsStudio and the following table completed. Input Line 21 22 23 (add or remove Load impedance sections as needed) impedance Impedance 22 50 Length (mm) Width (mm) Space (mm) if cow Maximum reflection in band (dB) Meets specs Yes or No Can you remove a section Yes or No and still meet specs? b. The simulated reflection coefficient (511) from 2 to 10 GHz. Your rectangular plot's scale should be from 0 dB to 30 dB with a scale of 5dB/division. You need to provide a single plot with two lines (black and red) for the ideal and realistic designs plotted on top of each other c Provide a single Smith Chart for the two cases as well. Again, there should be two lines: black (ideal) and red (realistic). Design a multi-section quarter-wavelength transformer from 2 to 10 GHz to match a sloed to 50 0 (Z.).
