VSWR / Return Loss / Reflection Coefficient Calculator

Enter any one of VSWR, return loss (dB), or reflection coefficient Γ and get the others, plus mismatch loss.

VSWR / Return Loss / Reflection Coefficient

Convert between VSWR, return loss (dB), reflection coefficient (Γ), and mismatch loss. Enter any one value to calculate the others.

VSWR ↔ Return Loss ↔ Reflection Coefficient

Input Type

Value

VSWR

—

Return Loss (dB)

—

Reflection Coeff. (Γ)

—

Mismatch Loss (dB)

—

Γ = (VSWR−1)/(VSWR+1) | RL = −20·log₁₀(Γ) | Mismatch Loss = −10·log₁₀(1−Γ²)
