Zusammenfassung:An apparatus and method for switching between matching impedances is described. One illustrative embodiment matches a first predetermined value of a dynamically varying load impedance to a predetermined source impedance and causes a phase shift between the source and the load that permits a second predetermined value of the dynamically varying load impedance to be matched to the predetermined source impedance by the addition, between the source and the load, of a single reactive element. Determining whether the dynamically varying impedance of the load is the first predetermined value or the second predetermined value permits the single reactive element to be omitted from or included in an impedance-matching circuit as needed to match the dynamically varying impedance of the load to the predetermined source impedance.
