RF Impedance Matching

The goal of this lab was to familiarize myself with impedance matching techniques by constructing a matched circuit on a Duroid at a chosen frequency. To accomplish this, I became comfortable with the concept of radial stubs and their uses in circuit design, as well as tools such as ADS and network analyzers. I also needed to learn how different transmission line configurations (series, shunt, etc.) transformed the impedance of my load.
