I used SmGamma1 and SmGamma2 as a first step in finding the simultaneous matching network, but I'm not sure where to go from here.
They outputted:
SmGamma1 @ 2.4GHz = -.623 + .569j
SmGamma2 @ 2.4GHz = .69 + .496j
I understand how to match unilateral matching using the smithchart matching utility, but I just have no idea how to translate these impedances into series/shunt ideal microstrips. Please help!
2 other questions:
1.) How can the resistor value be negative?
2.) "determines the reflection coefficient that must be presented to the input (port 1) of the network." What exactly does that mean? (This is part of the problem I am having in designing the matching network since I don't understand the output).
