Reg, what about Rho = SQRT(P-/P+) and SWR=(1+Rho)/(1-Rho)?
It applies only to a long line lossless line which does not exist but
Zo must be 50 ohms.
Let's say we have the following system configuration with
a 1:1 choke at '+':
100W XMTR---50 ohm coax---+---300 ohm twinlead---...
Pfor1=100w-- Pfor2--
--Pref1=0w --Pref2
What's the forward power on the 300 ohm twinlead?
What's the reflected power on the 300 ohm twinlead?
What's the SWR on the 300 ohm twinlead?
