What exactly do you mean by Zr at point z=0? i don't fully
understand the page you sent, and neither do you obviously.


Lower case z is distance, with the load at z=0

If the power RC is the square of the MAGNITUDE of the voltage
RC, then a voltage RC 1 will lead to a power RC 1.


He squares it to get the magnitude of the vector. There is still a phase
angle

How do you get more reflected power than incident power into a
passive network, praytell??



You don't. at gamma =2.41, the phase angle is about 65 degrees, and the real
part of gamma =1.0


What??!? if gamma, or rho, is greater than one, the reflected
power is definitely greater than the incident!




Now try this: using the conjugate formula, calculate gamma for the case
where the line is terminated in a short circuit, and tell us how that meets
the boundary condition.

Now try this: understand the page you sent me before you attempt
to discuss it with others!
