Impedance mismatches in a radio-frequency (RF) electrical transmission line cause power loss and reflected energy. Voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) is a way to measure transmission line ...

Maximum transmission efficiency occurs when the load impedance matches the generator impedance. Engineers do this to eliminate standing waves, which can severely damage equipment. Transmission lines ...

A transmission line is has a characteristic impedance of 50 ohms and a terminating resistance of 100 ohms. What is the reflection coefficient? What is the voltage standing waveform ratio?

With today�s technology, RF switching and signal control are moving out of the realm of mystery and black magic and into the arena of open standards solutions. The wireless communications industry ...
