    Note that for passive two-port networks in which |S 11 | ≤ 1, it follows that return loss is a non-negative quantity: RL in ≥ 0. Also note that somewhat confusingly, return loss is sometimes used as the negative of the quantity defined above, but this usage is, strictly speaking, incorrect based on the definition of loss.

    The insertion loss is not such a problem for an unequal split of power: for instance -40 dB at port 3 has an insertion loss less than 0.2 dB at port 2. Isolation can be improved at the expense of insertion loss at both output ports by replacing the output resistors with T pads. The isolation improvement is greater than the insertion loss added ...

  4. Insertion loss - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Insertion_loss

    In telecommunications, insertion loss is the loss of signal power resulting from the insertion of a device in a transmission line or optical fiber and is usually expressed in decibels (dB). If the power transmitted to the load before insertion is P T and the power received by the load after insertion is P R, then the insertion loss in decibels ...

  5. Return loss - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Return_loss

    A match is good if the return loss is high. A high return loss is desirable and results in a lower insertion loss. From a certain perspective 'Return Loss' is a misnomer. The usual function of a transmission line is to convey power from a source to a load with minimal loss. If a transmission line is correctly matched to a load, the reflected ...

  6. Transmission line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transmission_line

    The resistance and conductance contribute to the loss in a transmission line. The total loss of power in a transmission line is often specified in decibels per metre (dB/m), and usually depends on the frequency of the signal. The manufacturer often supplies a chart showing the loss in dB/m at a range of frequencies.

  7. Coupling loss - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coupling_loss

    Coupling loss is usually expressed in the same units—such as watts or decibels—as in the originating circuit element or medium. [1] Coupling loss in fiber optics refers to the power loss that occurs when coupling light from one optical device or medium to another. (See also Optical return loss.) Coupling losses can result from a number of ...

    Note that the transmission loss is zero when is a multiple of half a wavelength. As a simple example, consider a one chamber silencer with h = S1 / S2 =1/3, at around 400 °C the sound speed is about 520 m/s, with l =0.5 m, one easily calculate the TL result shown on the plot on the right.

  9. Insertion reaction - Wikipedia

    Organic azides also provide an example of an insertion reaction in organic synthesis and, like the above examples, the transformations proceed with loss of nitrogen gas. When tosyl azide reacts with norbornadiene, a ring expansion reaction takes place in which a nitrogen atom is inserted into a carbon-carbon bond α- to the bridge head: [14]
