Load reactance XL (Ω)

When a transmission line meets a load that does not match its impedance, part of the wave reflects. Incident and reflected waves combine into a standing-wave pattern measured by the VSWR. A perfect match (RL = Z₀, XL = 0) gives VSWR 1 and no reflection — the goal of every antenna and RF design.

Governing equation

∣Γ∣ = \frac{Z _{L} - Z _{0}}{Z _{L} + Z _{0}} = 0.200, VSWR = 1.50

Reading this result: A large resistive mismatch reflects much of the wave, giving a high VSWR and deep nulls in the standing-wave pattern.
