VSWR & Return Loss
Convert between VSWR, reflection coefficient (Γ), return loss, mismatch loss, and reflected power.
VSWR
1.5
Reflection Coeff (Γ)
0.2
Return Loss
13.979dB
Mismatch Loss
0.1773dB
Reflected Power
4%
96% of power reaches the load
Γ = (VSWR − 1) / (VSWR + 1)
RL = −20·log₁₀(Γ) dB
Mismatch Loss = −10·log₁₀(1 − Γ²) dB
