The cutoffs due to flare of the three horns are 25, 100 and 1400 cycles. In this example the impedance is referred to 6"!. r, resistive component at the throat of the small horn, x, reactive component at the throat of the small horn. equation For the frequency corresponding to ^ = 0 of the inter- mediate horn the impedance at the throat of the intermediate horn becomes indeterminate. The expression can be evaluated as shown in Sec. on exponential connectors. Next, the throat impedance at the throat of the small horn is obtained by again employing equation The mouth impedance of the small horn is the throat impedance just obtained for the intermediate horn. The impedance characteristic of Fig. shows three distinct steps depicting the surge impedance of each section.
