Load Impedance using Reflected Current Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Load Impedance = Characteristic Impedance*(Incident Voltage+Reflected Voltage)/(Reflected Voltage-Incident Voltage)
I_l = Z₀*(V_i+E_r)/(E_r-V_i)
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Load Impedance - (Measured in Ohm) - The load impedance is defined as the impedance of the load of the Transmission line during transient.
Characteristic Impedance - (Measured in Ohm) - The characteristic impedance of a uniform transmission line is the ratio of the amplitudes of voltage and current of a single wave propagating along the line during transient condition.
