13 Smith Chart Tutorial Part1 To begin with we start with the definition of VSWR, which is the ratio of the reflected voltage over the incident voltage.
The Reflection coefficient Γ is simply the complex (ie has phase) version of VSWR:- Define voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) V V Voltage reflection coefficient - Complex max min = + ? V V V V

13 Impedance is plotted on the smith chart by first normalising to the characteristic impedance of the system (usually
50 ohms). In a
50 ohm system the centre of the smith chart is a pure
50 ohms. For example say we wanted to plot an impedance of
150 + j75? First normalise ie 150/50 = 3? ;
75/50 = 1.5? normalised impedance = 3+ j1.5? So the real part of the impedance will lie somewhere along the r =
3 constant resistance circle ie:- R=3 circle
3 Next we follow the constant reactance line at 0.75 to find the intersection of the r =
3 circle to get to our impedance point. R=3 circle
