Yes, you did deliberately avoid mentioning the energy in
the forward and reflected waves in the stub. So what? The
energy supplied to the stub is in the form of EM wave
energy. As long as it is not transformed into a different
type of energy, it will remain EM energy whether you choose
to ignore it or not.


In a stub driven with a step function, where is the
energy stored?
