Default Standing-Wave Current vs Traveling-Wave Current

Well, let's look at that problem. Make the line 1/8 wavelength long
instead of 1/4 wavelength. The ratio of V to I at the source can be
calculated directly with a single formula or by separately calculating
the forward and reverse traveling voltage and current waves and summing
them. The result, for my 50 ohm transmission line terminated with 25
ohms, is 40 + j30 ohms.


Whoops, that is not possible for your V & I scalar values.
Please don't tell us that you are using ASCII characters,
normally reserved for scalar values, for phasor values,
without telling anyone what you were doing. Do you think
that is ethical?
