exercise 5.14 notes:
Z1=100;Z2=150;ZL=225
Z3=ZL
g1=(Z2-Z1)/(Z2+Z1)
g3=(Z3-Z2)/(Z3+Z2)
g2=-g1
% theta=beta*L=2*pi*D
% where D is fraction of wavelength D between [0 1]
dD=.01;D=[0:dD:1]
g_exact=(g1+g3*exp(-1j*2*2*pi*D))./(1+g1*g3*exp(-1j*2*2*pi*D))
g_approx=g1+g3*exp(-j*2*2*pi*D)
err=abs(abs(g_exact)-abs(g_approx))
plot(D,err),grid on;
nmax=find(err==max(err))
max(unique(err(nmax)))
= 1 51 101
= 0.015384615384615
error peak 0.01538 at D=.5 at l/2 or close to k*l/2 transmission line lengths, yet no error on lengths lambda*(1/4+1/2*k).
Answer: D_max_err=.5*k, k any integer
