On this paper, a couple of questions:
1. On page 2 just under Fig. 2:
Is there a knowable relationship between the number of sections in the transformer (or other parameters) and the achievable impedance ratio ?
2. On page 3
Fig.4 on the right shows a rather scattered Re an Im on the Smith chart. It seems to me that only |Z| is taken into account when designing the proposed transformer. Does the phase angle of Z have any effect on the transformer ?
3. Besides less bandwidth, what other drawbacks are there when employing a 1-section transformer instead of a 2-section transformer ?
Thank you
