Misuse of Return Loss
May 19, 2009. Perhaps over 30% of all antenna papers submitted to the Transactions in the past twelve months have used return loss incorrectly. This misuse of the term is occurring in other allied disciplines as well. For passive structures, return loss is a positive quantity and has the opposite sign of reflection coefficient expressed in dB. Read the full story. [pdf 29 KB]
