where RL(dB) is the return loss in dB, P i is the incident power and P r is the reflected power. Return loss is related to both standing wave ratio (SWR) and reflection coefficient (Γ). Increasing return loss corresponds to lower SWR. Return loss is a measure of how well devices or lines are matched. A match is good if the return loss is high.

Voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) (pronounced "vizwar" [1] [2]) is the ratio of maximum to minimum voltage on a transmission line . For example, a VSWR of 1.2 means a peak voltage 1.2 times the minimum voltage along that line, if the line is at least one half wavelength long.
The extra loss may be due to intrinsic loss in the DUT and/or mismatch. In case of extra loss the insertion loss is defined to be positive. The negative of insertion loss expressed in decibels is defined as insertion gain and is equal to the scalar logarithmic gain (see: definition above).
Perhaps over 30% of all antenna papers submitted to the Transactions in the past twelve months have used return loss incorrectly. The reason for this is uncertain. To remind everyone of the correct terminology, I review the definition of return loss, briefly outline the history of the term, and give some examples of current misuse. </quote>

In real systems, relatively little loss is due to mismatch loss and is often on the order of 1dB [dubious – discuss]. According to Walter Maxwell [2] mismatch does not result in any loss ("wasted" signal), except through the transmission line. This is because the signal reflected from the load is transmitted back to the source, where it is re ...
