Usually, SWR is defined as the ratio of the maximum radio-frequency voltage to the minimum RF voltage along the line. This is also known as the voltage standing-wave ratio. The SWR can also be defined as the ratio of the maximum RF current to the minimum RF current on the line current standing-wave ratio or ISWR. |
