Assume a transmission line circuit with arbitrary generator and load impedances \( Z_{g} \) and \( Z_{1} \), as depicted in the Figure below, which may be complex. The transmission line is assumed to be lossless, with a length 1 and characteristic impedance \( \mathrm{Z}_{0} \). a) What condition, i.e relation between \( Z_{\text {in }} \) and \( Z_{g} \), needs to be satisfied so to guarantee maximum power transfer to the load? b) Discuss why if \( \mathrm{Z}_{\mathrm{g}}=\mathrm{Z}_{1}=\mathrm{Z}_{0} \) only half of the power generated by the generator is delivered to the load.
To solve this we will take help of Thevenin's equivalent circuit where we know that to transfer the maximum power the load impedance must be equal to Thevenins equivalent impedance i
