Chebyshev Multi-section MatchingThe Chebyshev transformer is optimum bandwidth to allow
ripple within the passband response, and is known as equally ripple.
Larger bandwidth than that of binomial matching.

Using table design for N=3 and ZL/Z0=2 can find coefficient as 1.1475, 1.4142, and 1.7429. So Z1=57.37, Z2=70.71, and Z3=87.15.
Tapered Lines MatchingThe line can be continuously tapered instead of discrete multiple sections to achieve broadband matching.
Changing the type of line can obtain different passband characteristics.

1) Exponential

3) Klopfenstein
Exponential TaperThe length (L)of line should be greater than /2(l>) to minimize the mismatch at low frequency.

Klopfenstein TaperFor a maximum reflection coefficient specification in the passband, the Klopfenstein taper yields the shortest matching section (optimum sense).
The impedance taper has steps at z=0 and L, and so does not smoothly join the source and load impedances.

Bode-Fano CriterionThe criterion gives a theoretical limit on the minimum
reflection magnitude (or optimum result) for an arbitrary matching network
The criterion provide the upper limit of performance to tradeoff among reflection coefficient, bandwidth, and network complexity.
For example, if the response ( as the left hand side of next page) is needed to be synthesized, its function is given by applied the criterion of parallel RC

For a given load, broader bandwidth , higher m.
m 0 unless =o. Thus a perfect match can be achieved only at a finite number of frequencies.
As R and/or C increases, the quality of the match ( and/or m) must decrease. Thus higher-Q circuits are intrinsically harder to match than are lower-Q circuits.
RLC Series Resonant Circuit
Microwave resonators are used in a variety of applications, including filters, oscillators, frequency meters, and tuned amplifiers.
The operation of microwave resonators is very similar to that of the lumped-element resonators (such as parallel and series RLC resonant circuits) of circuit theory.
