Abstract :
This paper discusses impedance matching between an arbitrary load and a particular type of source network, by means of a lossless two-terminal-pair matching network. The source network consists of an LC ladder in series with a generator resistance. This study is devoted principally to theoretical considerations of low-pass systems utilizing lossless matching networks between source networks and arbitrary load impedances. The present effort is one possible extension of previous work of Fano. Fano´s system, however, did not include a two-terminal-pair source network. The value of the present work is derived from an investigation of constraints imposed by the source system and the load, rather than just the load itself.
