Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (VSWR)
The VSWR is essentially the same concept as the standing wave ratio
(SWR) discussed along with waves. The only difference is that it
describes voltage and current instead of electromagnetic fields.

This means that from the perspective of the generator, the reflection
going into the transmission line will change depending on the length
of the transmission line. This can only happen of the input
impedance to the transmission line is changing.

Input Transformation for Lossless Line
The lossless line has
 0
  j
Putting these values into our impedance transformation formula gives
Z in     Z 0
Z L  Z 0 tanh  j   
Z 0  Z L tanh  j   
Recognizing that tanh(jz) = jtan(z), our expression for lossless lines
becomes
Z in     Z 0
Z L  jZ 0 tan    
Z 0  jZ L tan    
Transmission Line Behavior
Slide 31
Input Impedance Repeats for Lossless
Lines
For lossless lines, the tan     function in the impedance
transformation equation tells us that the function is periodic and
repeats.
The function repeats every integer multiple of .
   m
m  , , 3, 2, 1, 0,1, 2,3, , 
Recognizing that  = 2/, the above expression leads to
m

2
Note:  is the wavelength in the transmission line, not the free space
wavelength 0.
This means the input impedance repeats for every half‐wavelength
long the transmission line is.
We will revisit this when we cover Smith charts, which will give you a way to
visualize the impedance transformation phenomenon.

Matched Line, ZL = Z0
Reflection from Load
L  0
Vmin and Vmax
Vmin  Vmax  V0
Input Impedance
Z in     Z 0
Voltage Standing Wave Ratio
VSWR  1
because Vmax = Vmin
Imin and Imax
I min  I max  V0 Z 0
min[Zin] and max[Zin]
min  Z in   max  Z in   Z 0
Note: F the matched line, there are no
reflections and all of the power is
delivered to the load.
