The passive network you provided in your first post fulfills this
requirement if you define 'power RC' as |rho|^2.
I disagree that the voltage RC will be greater than 1.
The tricky part is measuring this correctly, because you
would need an SWR meter that is calibrated for the same Z as
Zo.
It is not nearly that tricky. 'Revised' rho, as you state,
predicts 0 Volts across the capacitor. This will be easy to
measure with any AC voltmeter that can handle your test frequency.
I predict, using circuit theory, that if you excite the
test circuit with a 1 Volt sinusoid at a frequency that
makes the impedances j200 and -j200, that you will measure
4 Volts across the capacitor, not 0. This aligns with the
result expected from 'classic' rho.
