Method and apparatus for remotely determining antenna input impedance
Abstract:
A system for remotely measuring antenna input impedance utilizing an automatic antenna tuner in which, for any tuner, the tuner input impedance may be established by the values of the components in the circuit at the time that the SWR is at a minimum, with these values being automatically available in terms of the components that are switched in to achieve low SWR. Once having established the input impedance to the tuner, the complex conjugate of the tuner input impedance yields the antenna input impedance, with antenna input impedance sensed at full power at a position remote from the antenna input.
