Nonsynchronous noncommensurate impedance transformers consist of a combination of high- and low-impedance transmission lines. The present work is dedicated to the synthesis of such transformers. They are analyzed employing wave transmission matrices. The performance of the transformer is compared to a traditional tapered line impedance transformer. The increase in bandwidth of nonsynchronous noncommensurate impedance transformers typically leads to shortening the transformer length, which makes the transformer attractive for applications, where a wide operating band and high transformation ratios are required.
