Default Derivation of Reflection Coefficient vs SWR

Not at all. The equations don't just stop working at 0 frequency.


As a matter of fact, EM waves cannot exist without
photons. There is zero wave activity at DC. Therefore,
the forward power and reflected power is zero at DC
steady-state.

You really should try to stop thinking about photons
for just a short while.


Yep, you guys would like to sweep the technical knowledge
from the field of optical physics and quantum electro-
dynamics under the rug. One wonders why.

Think of it as a long pulse. That should satisfy your
need to have 'waves'.


No, only photons will satisfy the definition of EM
waves. There are no photons. There are no waves. There
are no forward and reflected powers. There are no
changing E-fields or H-fields. There is not even any
movement of electrons associated with the source
voltage.
