Quarter-Wave TransformerA useful and practical circuit for impedance matching.
Defined as TL with length equals to ℓ=/4(+ n/2).
Perfect matching occurs at one frequency (odd multiple) but mismatch will occur at other frequencies.
Impedance matching is limited to real load impedances (complex load impedance can be transferred to real one, by transformation through an appropriate length of line.)
Substituting ℓ=(2/)(/4)= /2
