gamma2z

Convert reflection coefficient to impedance

Description

example

z= gamma2z(gamma)converts the reflection coefficientgammato the impedancezusing a reference impedanceZ0of 50 ohms.

z= gamma2z(gamma,z0)converts the reflection coefficientgammato the impedancezby:

  • Computing the normalized impedance.

  • Multiplying the normalized impedance by the reference impedanceZ0.

Examples

collapse all

Calculate impedance from given reference impedance and reflection coefficient values

z0 = 50; gamma = 1/3; z = gamma2z(gamma,z0)
z = 100.0000

Input Arguments

collapse all

reflection coefficient specified as a Γ.

Reference impedance, specified in scalar as ohms.

Note

z0must be a positive real scalar or vector. Ifz0is a vector, then the vector must be equal to the number of network parameter data points or frequency vector.

Output Arguments

collapse all

Impedance obtained from reflection coefficient, returned asz

Algorithms

The following equation shows this conversion:

Z = Z 0 * ( 1 + Γ 1 Γ )
