In the above picture ZL = 24 j*21 (as resistance is 24 and capacitance

pF) and Zs = 20.

We got electrical length for the Z0 = 50 transmission line as 27.385 degree.

Bandwidth are calculated numerically and via ADS (1. With 20 load and 2. Transmission line with Zin =
20 ).

There is a little variation between numerically calculated bandwidth and via ADS (with 20 load). This
variation is due to the use of approximate design equations and ADS uses exact design equations for its
simulations.

But there is a lot of difference in bandwidth in numerically calculated and via ADS (Transmission line with
Zin = 20 ). As the Zin of transmission line is approximately equal to 20 at 6 GHz and also with varying
frequency this Zin would keep on varying. Now this Zin would act as a load to transformers but it would
vary with frequency, but that simple 20 load would not vary with frequency hence giving better results.
So the results received in this case are very different from the numerical calculations and via ADS (with 20
load).
