32. Reflection coefficient

It explains Reflection coefficient taht is an important factor to secure the signal quality. In the right circuit, reflection coefficient Γ can be calculated as the right formula and take value between -1 to +1.

Behaviour of reflection
Load condition Reflection coefficient Load impedance Behaviour of progressive wave

Short status

Voltage cancelled completely

Correct alignment

All absorbed into the load

Open status

It is reflected completely, and the voltage doubles.
