Abstract
The Smith Chart is the complex plane of the reflection coefficient. The unique contribution of P. H. Smith was the superposed grid for identifying impedance or admittance values; however, students, when being introduced to the Chart, can often be caught up in the superposed grid. Mastery of the use of the Chart requires a clear understanding of its underlying essence.
