A Review and Mathematical Treatment of Infinity on the Smith Chart, 3D Smith Chart and Hyperbolic Smith Chart

An Interactive Smith Chart

Smith is an instructional, interactive, menu driven program that offers the use of Smith Chart on a personal computer. Using the Smith Chart is greatly simplified by providing the user with a “tracking mode” in which the cursor is tracked, showing the normalized resistance and reactance as well as distances from source and load. Also, construction lines such as radius, diameter and circles can ...

A Novel Neural Smith Chart for Use in Microwave Circuitry

In this article, briefly the Smith chart is mapped with an artificial neural network (ANN) covering its whole details to be exploited CAD of the microwave circuitry. Thus, relative to the similar works in the existing literature, this article provides the continuous Smith chart domain to facilitate the ‘‘Smith chart’’ methodology in solving the highly nonlinear transformation equations between ...

Smith-chart diagnostics for multi-GHz time-domain-reflectometry dielectric spectroscopy.

A time-domain-reflectometry Smith-chart display is demonstrated to be a valuable diagnostic tool in a variety of situations in time-domain-reflectometry dielectric spectroscopy. A relative reflection coefficient is formed by dividing the Laplace transform of the reflected sample transient by the Laplace transform of the empty-sensor transient and displaying in the complex plane, with the approx...

Max Chart: Combining X-bar Chart and S Chart

Control chart techniques have been widely used in industries to monitor a process in quality improvement. Whenever we deal with variables data, we usually employ a combination of X-bar chart and R chart (or S chart) to monitor both the center and the spread of the process. In this paper, we propose a simple alternative, that is, we design a single chart to monitor both the center and the spread...
