Owen -- Yes, it is so and it is equal to: SWR = (A + B)/(A - B) Whe A = sqrt ( (R + Z)^2 + X^2 ) B = sqrt ( (R - Z)^2 + X^2 ) R = resistive component of load impedance in Ohms. X = reactive component of load impedance in Ohms. Z = reference impedance (purely resistive) in Ohms If you don't believe it, get some resistors, capacitors and a half way decent SWR meter and do some experiments; no transmission line required. -- Jim Pennino Remove .spam.sux to reply. |
