VSWR to return loss conversion
“ Convert VSWR ”
This is an online conversion tool for converting between
VSWR, return loss and reflection coefficient, which are different ways to express how well a load is matched to a source. These parameters are often applied to antennas,
RF filters and
RF amplifiers such as
LNAs and
PAs.
Return loss can be measured by using microwave and RF test equipment such as a signal generator, directional coupler along with a spectrum analyser or power meter, or alternatively by using a vector network analyser. Test equipment is often combined with software tools such as RF simulators by RF engineers to improve impedance matches between circuit blocks.
