    This document discusses standing waves on transmission lines. It defines the voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) as the ratio of maximum to minimum voltage on the line. The VSWR depends on the reflection coefficient and is equal to (1+Γ)/(1-Γ), where Γ is the reflection coefficient. Locations of voltage anti-nodes and current nodes correspond to maximum line impedance, while voltage nodes and current anti-nodes correspond to minimum line impedance. The line impedance at these points depends on the characteristic impedance and VSWR. Example problems are provided for further illustration.
