  2. Standing wave ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standing_wave_ratio

    In radio engineering and telecommunications, standing wave ratio (SWR) is a measure of impedance matching of loads to the characteristic impedance of a transmission line or waveguide. Impedance mismatches result in standing waves along the transmission line, and SWR is defined as the ratio of the partial standing wave 's amplitude at an ...

  3. SWR meter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SWR_meter

    A standing wave ratio meter, SWR meter, ISWR meter (current "I" SWR), or VSWR meter (voltage SWR) measures the standing wave ratio (SWR) in a transmission line. [ a ] The meter indirectly measures the degree of mismatch between a transmission line and its load (usually an antenna ).

  4. Waveguide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waveguide

    This work led to the discovery that for the TE 01 mode in circular waveguide losses go down with frequency and at one time this was a serious contender for the format for long-distance telecommunications. [11]: 544–548 The importance of radar in World War II gave a great impetus to waveguide research, at least on the Allied side.

  5. Link budget - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Link_budget

    A link budget is an accounting of all of the power gains and losses that a communication signal experiences in a telecommunication system; from a transmitter, through a communication medium such as radio waves, cable, waveguide, or optical fiber, to the receiver.

    ZVA40 vector network analyzer from Rohde & Schwarz.. A network analyzer is an instrument that measures the network parameters of electrical networks.Today, network analyzers commonly measure s–parameters because reflection and transmission of electrical networks are easy to measure at high frequencies, but there are other network parameter sets such as y-parameters, z-parameters, and h ...

  9. Signal reflection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signal_reflection

    In telecommunications, signal reflection occurs when a signal is transmitted along a transmission medium, such as a copper cable or an optical fiber. Some of the signal power may be reflected back to its origin rather than being carried all the way along the cable to the far end.
