This tool converts Return Loss (RL) in dB to its equivalent Reflection Coefficient (Γ). It helps in understanding how much of the transmitted signal is reflected back due to impedance mismatch in RF systems.
Formula
Γ = 10 ^ ( -RL / 20 )
Formula Explanation
- RL is the Return Loss in decibels (dB).
- Γ (Gamma) is the ratio of reflected voltage to incident voltage.
- A higher RL means lower reflection, indicating a better impedance match.
Example
Input: RL = 20 dB
Result: Γ = 0.1
Who uses it
Ideal for RF engineers and antenna designers analyzing transmission line performance and minimizing reflected power.
