Lossless Line
For a lossless line, R and G are both zero, so the equation for characteristic impedance reduces to:
The imaginary term j has also canceled out, making Z0 a real expression, and so is purely resistive.

Famous quotes containing the word line:
“Any walk through a park that runs between a double line of mangy trees and passes brazenly by the ladies’ toilet is invariably known as “Lover’s Lane.””
