[@johnthompson5034]

Thank you for that. Many ageing amateur radio enthusiasts like myself will likely be grateful for your very straightforward introduction to this black art.

[@LuqmanNaim]

Thank you for this video. You made someone's life easier. God bless!

[@PCL73314]

this short video was better and easier to understand than my hour lecture + text book. it helped me finish my homework. thank you!

[@mab7727]

make a 1080p

[@kevinobrien8803]

Nice video. But how did you obtain the initial 50 +j50 load impedance values. Do you measure those with a scope in some way? I.e the resistance and reactive components of the load? I really would like to know exactly how you get those values from the physical load. Help!!

[@alaaalshurufat2998]

step by step tutorial, every thing is stable....so your info directly to my brain thank you

[@DarkWolf887]

I wish some one could force my lecturer to watch this video and learn how you teach an undergraduate student. Sometimes they seem to be teaching PhD students. Seriously... So frustrating. Thanks for the video. Saved me 3 hours of lecture with her/him. :D

[@samfisherXXI]

thx a lot, you're explanation is so smooth and great, as they say : It takes a lot of work to make things look easy

[@Filaxsan]

At first i thought you were very naive with pencil and paper, but this is actually pretty good!! Thank you very much! :)

[@rolaki]

I've been in RF since 1993. The longer I work in this field the less it feels like black magic, but also the longer I work in the field, the more I'm convinced its black magic. It all depends on what you truly understand.

[@eriknunezalbermann9993]

Any tips to get an RF job? -Electrical engineer grad with antenna classes(:

[@rolaki]

@@eriknunezalbermann9993 It seems like in every interview I’ve had I was asked the formula for cascaded noise figure. 😊Of course research the company’s products as much as possible. What gets people hired is them being enthusiastic and passionate. I train people a lot. It takes about a year until they are independent. So they don’t expect you to get everything right. Brush up on the fundamentals. How do you add dBm + dBm? That was another question. Good luck!

[@mikeolaf5126]

Good overview on how it works. But I still have a question. You said it tells "How well matched your load impedance is to the rest of the line - you could use the Smith chart." So now that we plotted those values - what do they tell us about that impedance matching? Thanks.

[@abdowayne6885]

As long as the plotted point is near the prime center, means that is a good impedance matching .

[@franciscogerardohernandezr4788]

Dude, respect. No matter how sofisticated Asians or European want to make it look, there´s no substitute for plain old American simplicity.

[@mister-bellini]

Thank you. You achieved to explain easily, what my teacher could not explain...

[@Mohsinkhan-uo9cp]

Very well.You are my teacher now..

[@kevinkillsit]

I can plot all this no problem, but what do I do with it next? Is the goal to bring the impedance closer to the purely Resistive axis from a design standpoint? If I'm way out on the edge is the goal to design a network system that counteracts the impedance mismatch with hardware to say add more capacitance or inductance if your on one side or the other? sorry just a dumb mechanical engineer here who's just curious how to apply this. recently started working in RF and want to understand more.

[@MrRefract]

Many thanks. Clear, concise, and exactly what the title said it would be.

[@sithembisomagadla9483]

Thank You Mr Simple and straight forward.

[@balkey312]

you're great.... we need more good teachers in America

[@elderartifactresearchlab]

you just made my life much easier, cheers dude you a legend

[@lovinglife3675]

Hey Carl , i am a little late to your channel :-) but what determines if its a - or + ? am i looking to hard ? cheers mate ! great tutorial 🙏

[@hassanaziz39]

Brilliant.I dont know who you are but I must call you sir now

[@theangelrox]

That's a must watch video! Wonderful job.

[@user-uv4xe3cq2y]

Carl, that was easy for me to follow! Thanks and keep up the good work!

[@annisayob5141]

it helps a lot!! online learning is so hard and i have a test tommorow lucky me, i found this video

[@shrutid.lawate5139]

Thankyou soo much.. i have an exam tomorrow and this helped me a great deal..

[@iirmusic]

You, sir, are a lifesaver.

[@hemanjanat135]

Thank u so much Carl Oliver, it helped a lot!

[@aaronargottelopez3488]

Hi sir, i have a question. I hope you can answer. This is the statement: you have a transmission line, when you have put your stub afar from load, you have a characteristic load and after the stub, you have a different charateristic load. How can i make the coupling?. Please, answer as soon you can.

[@misginamengesha9555]

I dont know how to say thank you for your good work..........*1000000000thank you very much

[@juangfuentes7416]

You showed how to plot the complex impedance but didn;t answer the original problem: how well matched is the load to the characteristic impedance, is that expressed in dB? %? how much match is enough?

[@brianarucan139]

Great video very easy to understand

[@dalygav]

The basics of a smith chart should include two things that were left out in this video. Inductance and Capacitance.

[@lupuszzz]

When somebody explains logarithmic scales, I wouldn't say that he missed the function of voltage dividers. It shows correctly how and impedance is calculated and how Z is found in a Smith chart.

[@MohamadItani93]

love how u call me an expert fast :D thanks for the tut

[@alejasalcedo1870]

if you have a negative value on the the imaginary part of load impedance, the line matching the points should be downwards ?

[@juanrios4275]

A 300 ohm transmission line is terminated with an antenna that presents a (450 ohm - j600 ohm) load impedance. What is the normalized load admittance?

[@43SunSon]

240P only?

[@ntwede]

No, you also have the option of 144P

[@vinaymuley3692]

Make video on stub matching

[@sameerkadam4830]

thank you sir! this is really gonna helpful for me

Well explain sir..Thank you so much 👌

[@adityaarora9335]

brilliantly explained

[@outrmn]

can you upload video about stub and double stub matching?

[@wolleausmallo1]

Is it possible for you, to make a better quality video? That will be fine.

[@sebastianbernal8897]

Great video, Much appreciated

[@DHarrisChillin]

Great video thanks!

[@TheShozEE]

cannot plot -j0.5 on my chart, the semi-circle for the imaginary stops when it crosses R = 2

[@DREAMWORKERSKY]

thank you you saved my final

[@rgarriga93]

+DREAMWORKERSKY He saved my final too :'D

[@jasmindelorbe724]

una explicación rápida y sencilla, gracias :)

[@akremihassen5701]

but what if the real part is negative ?
