Abstract:

Exact expressions for the available loss factor, noise factor, and efficiency of a distributed linear transmission line are presented for arbitrary mismatch of its source and load impedances to the lines characteristic impedance. Numerical results are given for a low-loss coaxial line. Keywords include Antenna Available loss factor Efficiency and Electrically-Short Antenna.
