  3. To provide a rejection notch that prevents the radiation of harmonics
  4. To transform the antenna impedance to a higher value

E9E05:

How must an antenna's driven element be tuned to use a hairpin matching system?

  1. The driven element reactance must be capacitive
  2. The driven element reactance must be inductive
  3. The driven element resonance must be lower than the operating frequency
  4. The driven element radiation resistance must be higher than the characteristic impedance of the transmission line

  1. 50 ohms
  2. 62 ohms
  3. 75 ohms
  4. 450 ohms

  1. Characteristic impedance
  2. Reflection coefficient
  3. Velocity factor
  4. Dielectric constant

E9E08:

What is a use for a Wilkinson divider?

  1. It divides the operating frequency of a transmitter signal so it can be used on a lower frequency band
  2. It is used to feed high-impedance antennas from a low-impedance source
  3. It is used to divide power equally between two 50-ohm loads while maintaining 50-ohm input impedance
  4. It is used to feed low-impedance loads from a high-impedance source

  2. Hairpin match
  3. Gamma match
  4. All these choices are correct

E9E10:

Which of these choices is an effective way to match an antenna with a 100-ohm feed point impedance to a 50-ohm coaxial cable feed line?

  1. Connect a 1/4-wavelength open stub of 300-ohm twinlead in parallel with the coaxial feed line where it connects to the antenna
  2. Insert a 1/2 wavelength piece of 300-ohm twinlead in series between the antenna terminals and the 50-ohm feed cable
  3. Insert a 1/4-wavelength piece of 75-ohm coaxial cable transmission line in series between the antenna terminals and the 50-ohm feed cable
  4. Connect a 1/2 wavelength shorted stub of 75-ohm cable in parallel with the 50-ohm cable where it attaches to the antenna

E9E11:

What is the primary purpose of phasing lines when used with an antenna having multiple driven elements?

  1. It ensures that each driven element operates in concert with the others to create the desired antenna pattern
  2. It prevents reflected power from traveling back down the feed line and causing harmonic radiation from the transmitter
  3. It allows single-band antennas to operate on other bands
  4. It creates a low-angle radiation pattern
