Freespace.delay_load(Gamma0, d, unit='m', **kwargs)

Delayed load

A load with reflection coefficient Gamma0 at the end of a matched line of length d.

Parameters :

Gamma0 : number, array-like

reflection coefficient of load (not in dB)

d : number

the length of transmissin line (see unit argument)

unit : [‘m’,’deg’,’rad’]

the units of d. possible options are:

• m : meters, physical length in meters (default)
• deg :degrees, electrical length in degrees
• rad :radians, electrical length in radians

**kwargs : key word arguments

passed to match(), which is called initially to create a ‘blank’ network.

Returns :

delay_load : Network object

a delayed load

line

creates the network for line

load

creates the network for the load

Notes

This calls

line(d,unit, **kwargs) ** load(Gamma0, **kwargs)
