SOSO Graph How To TransLine

The document describes how to use a SOSO graph to determine whether a transmission line is acting as a parallel resonant circuit, series resonant circuit, inductive reactance, or capacitive reactance based on its length. The graph uses "S" lines to represent short circuits and "O" lines to represent open circuits intersecting with wavelength lines to identify the characteristic of the transmission line. Examples are provided of analyzing transmission lines of various lengths using this method.

How to Use the SOSO Graph

Gonzales, John Immanuel


What is a SOSO Graph?
• It’s a type of graph that visually inspects whether a given transmission line is a Parallel or
Series Resonant circuit, or acting as an Inductive Reactance, or Capacitive Reactance.
Example
• An open transmission line with one-fourth wavelength acts as an.

A. Parallel resonant circuit


B. Series Resonant circuit
C. Inductive reactance
D. Capacitive reactance

The “O” line is intersecting the R and


¼ line hence Series Resonant
Example
• A short transmission line with one-fourth wavelength acts as an.

A. Parallel resonant circuit


B. Series Resonant circuit
C. Inductive reactance
D. Capacitive reactance

The “S” line is NOT intersecting the R and ¼


line, but the intersection of the R and ¼ line is
in between both S lines that are “parallel”
with each other hence Parallel Resonant
Example
• A short transmission line with a length of one wavelength acts as an.

A. Parallel resonant circuit


B. Series Resonant circuit
C. Inductive reactance
D. Capacitive reactance

The “S” line is intersecting the R and 1


lambda line, if it is intersecting it is a Series
Resonant
Example
• A short transmission line that is greater than one-fourth wavelength but shorter than a
half-wavelength acts as an.

A. Parallel resonant circuit


B. Series Resonant circuit
C. Inductive reactance
D. Capacitive reactance
The imaginary line of the given length is
drawn, and it is intersecting with the “S” line
underneath the R line. Hence the Trans-line
acts as a Capacitive Reactance
Example
• An open transmission line with 0.85 wavelength acts as an.

A. Parallel resonant circuit


B. Series Resonant circuit
C. Inductive reactance
D. Capacitive reactance

The imaginary line for 0.85 wavelength is


found to be intersecting with the “O” line
above the R line. Hence the given Trans-line
act as an Inductive Reactance
Example
• An open transmission line with one-half wavelength acts as an.

A. Parallel resonant circuit


B. Series Resonant circuit
C. Inductive reactance
D. Capacitive reactance

The “O” line is NOT intersecting the R and ½


line, but the intersection of the R and ½ line is
in between both the O lines that are “parallel”
with each other hence Parallel Resonant
Example
• An open transmission line with 0.65 wavelength acts as an.

A. Parallel resonant circuit


B. Series Resonant circuit
C. Inductive reactance
D. Capacitive reactance

The imaginary line of the given length is


drawn, and it is intersecting with the “O” line
underneath the R line. Hence the Trans-line
acts as a Capacitive Reactance
