Topics to develop:
- Waveguides
- Electric parameters in transmission lines
The group will have to follow the next steps to accomplish the activity goals.
Step 1: Make an academic research about the topics defined for this unit.
Step 2: Answer the given questions using academic resources.
Step 3: Each member of the group has to select and solve one problem.
Step 4: Solve the practical exercises in group, taking into account that it is
necessary to explain each value and step.
Step 5: Compile the group contributions from the collaborative forum and ensure
the accomplish of the rubric items.
Activities to develop
Each student in the group has to answer the following questions using
academic references to support the research:
Choose one of the following problems, solve it and share the solution in the
forum. Perform a critical analysis on the group members’ contributions and
reply this in the forum.
4. A 50Ω lossless transmission line has a 𝑍𝐿 = 45 − 𝑗75Ω. If it is 22𝑚 long and the
wavelength is 2𝑚. Find and probe with the smith chart:
a. Input impedance.
b. Reflection coefficient.
c. VSWR
Using the software Smith V4.0, found in the practice learning environment, solve the
next exercises and explain each step of the simulation.
1. For the following input impedance and load impedance, find the wavelength
necessary to get a real input impedance.
a. 𝑍𝐿 = 35 − 𝑗60Ω 𝑍0 = 75Ω.
b. 𝑍𝐿 = 15 − 𝑗50Ω 𝑍0 = 50Ω.
c. 𝑍𝐿 = 45 − 𝑗65Ω 𝑍0 = 30Ω.
d. 𝑍𝐿 = 50 − 𝑗30Ω 𝑍0 = 75Ω.
Collaborative:
The collaborative group will have to choose the best analyses
about the given concepts and to consolidate each part of the

Students must be aware of severe sanctions in the case of
plagiarism.
The academic sanctions that the student will face are the
following:
A) In cases of academic fraud demonstrated in academic work or
respective evaluation, the grade that will be imposed will be zero
point zero (0.0) without prejudice to the corresponding
disciplinary sanction.
B) In cases related to plagiarism demonstrated in academic work
of any nature, the grade that will be imposed will be zero point
