Note also that if the equation for total average power is used to find
average power at any point along the line, fE1 becomes the forward voltage at the observation point, not necessarily the forward voltage at the input end of the line. So to calculate the total power as a function of position along the line, it's probably best to use a voltage at a fixed point, such as fE2, the forward voltage at the load, in its place. Make the substitution |fE1|^2 = |fE2|^2 * exp(2 * ax) for |fE1|^2 to make the power equation more usable for this purpose. Roy Lewallen, W7EL Roy Lewallen wrote: I've given the equation. With that and a spreadsheet or plotting program (or graph paper) of your choice, you can have the plot in minutes. Note that x is the distance from the load.
