As shown previously, the real and imaginary part of the complex impedance of the tire is very large. In an actual system, it would be possible to adjust a supply circuit to the impedance.
However, the supply circuit has not yet been designed. Therefore, a 50-ohm matching circuit designed for use with measurement instruments, such as a Vector Network Analyzer, is used.


Many matching circuits have been proposed. As an example, three structures of matching circuits are shown here.
In this study, Matching circuit 3 was selected from the viewpoint of transmission loss.
