Sure, there is ALWAYS VSWR. It may be 1:1, but it's always there.
If there's no reflection, there can be no standing wave. So, being
pedantic, there's no such thing as an SWR of 1:1!
Despite the name, VSWR is defined in terms of complex impedances
and wavelengths, not "waves" of any kind.
Actually, VSWR is defined as the ratio of Vmax/Vmin.
