Hi,
Based on my understanding, characteristic impedance is the constant and instantaneous impedance a signal sees as it travels along a transmission line. If the impedance along the line is different, then the voltage will get reflected. Kindly correct me if I am wrong. But
[1] what is causing the voltage to be reflected?
[2] has characteristic impedance related to the resonant in the LC circuit?
[3] is it necessary that the transmission line be purely resistive or could it be a combination of RLC network that form a 50ohm impedance line?
Kindly advise and thank you for the help.
