Abstract :
In the arrangement of Fig. 1, the load ZLis assumed to have a high impedance and a capacitive phase. Formulas and graphs are presented for determining the correct length and tapping point on the line. If the step-up ratio is high, a simple formula (equation (12)) can be derived for the bandwidth of the system.
