The characteristic impedance or surge impedance belongs to uniform transmission lines.

In electronic gears we use voltage bridging, that is a relative low output impedance to a higher input impedance. Usualy the input impedance is more than ten times higher then the output impedance.
An input impedance is called also a load impedance or an external impedance.
An output impedance is called also a source impedance or an internal impedance.

Which is better high input impedance or low input impedance and why?

That depends on the output impedance. In electronic we use voltage bridging, that is a relative low output impedance to a higher input impedance. Usualy the input impedance is more than ten times higher then the output impedance. An input impedance is called also a load impedance or an external impedance. An output impedance is called also a source impedance or an internal impedance.

Why input impedance is in parallel and output impedance is in series?

That is not the case. Scroll down to related links and look at "Measurement of input impedance and output impedance".


Why do you expect an infinity line to have an input impedance equal to the caractarictic impedance?

The characteristic impedance of a transmission line is the ratio of voltage to current of the propagating electrical wave. The line input impedance is the result of the superposition of forward and reverse, or reflected waves when the terminating impedance is not adapted. If the line is infinite, nothing returns from its end and only the forward wave exits. The voltage to current ratio is then the line characteristic impedance. Remark that the same occurs when the line is terminated by its characteristic impedance, the forward wave finds a perfect continuity to the load and no energy is reflected back to the line. A matched line is like an infinite line when looked from the input terminals. Long real lossy lines also act as infinite lines for the energy of the reflected wave is dissipated along the line before reaching the source.

What will happen to the input signal when the transmission line is terminated by its characteristic impedence?

When the input signal to a transmission line is terminated by its characteristic impedance then the signal gets absorbed in the terminating impedance itself and is not reflected back along the line. Thus, no standing waves are produced in the transmission line.
