It discards the information which is contained in the phase angle of the reflection coefficient. As a consequence the only use which can be made of the magnitude is to calculate the SWR on an imaginary 50-ohm line. Reg, I dug up some calculations from sci.physics.electromag from about a year ago that indicate one foot of 50 ohm coax on each side of the Bird is enough to make the line real, i.e. not imaginary, and that's a conservative estimate. -- 73, Cecil http://www.qsl.net/w5dxp i like imaginary! |
