In a transmission line terminated with a load equal to the characteristic impedance, the reflection coefficient is
- A. zero
- B. +1
- C. -1
- D. infinity
Answer: A. zero
Explanation: Reflection coefficient $(\Gamma) = \frac{Z_L-Z_0}{Z_L+Z_0}$. If the load matches the characteristic impedance ($Z_L = Z_0$), then $(\Gamma) = \frac{0}{2Z_0} = 0$.
