Best Answer

VSWR on a line is infinite when the far end of the line is perfectly open or perfectly shorted,

i.e. the line is terminated in an impedance of exactly zero or exactly infinite, AND the line

is perfectly lossless.

Under those conditions, the reflection coefficient is 1.0 and the return loss is zero.

What is the limit of infinity over zero?

infinity? Infinity over zero is undefined, or complex infinity depending on numbers you are including in your number system.


How do you write in interval notation x is positive?

What number is more than infinity?

There is no number greater than infinity. Infinity is defined to be greater than any number, so there can not be two numbers, both infinity, that are different.However, when dealing with limits, one can approach a non-infinite value for a function involving infinity. Take, for example, 2x divided by x, when x is infinity. That value is indeterminate, because infinity divided by infinity is defined as indeterminate, and 2 times infinity is still infinity.But, if you look at the limit of 2x divided by x, as x approaches infinity, you do get a value, and that value is 2. This does not mean that 2x when x is infinity is twice infinity, it just means that, right before x becomes infinity, the ratio is right before 2.Infinity should not be thought of as a number, but rather as a direction. Whereas a number represents a specific quantity, infinity does not define given quantity. (If you started counting really fast for billions of years, you would never get to infinity.) There are, however, different "sizes of infinity." Aleph-null, for example, is the infinity that describes the size of the natural numbers (0,1,2,3,4....) The infinity that describes the size of the real numbers is much larger than aleph-null, for between any two natural numbers, there are infinite real numbers.Anyway, to improve upon the answer above, it is not meaningful to say "when x is infinity," because, as explained above, no number can "be" infinity. A number can approach infinity, that is to say, get larger and larger and larger, but it will never get there. Because infinity is not a number, there is no point in asking what number is more than infinity.

Impossible to answer ! Infinity is a never ending quantity - and Pi is a never ending decimal !

What is the VSWR and reflection coefficient?

VSWR = voltage standing wave ratio = ratio of the maximum voltage to minimum on a line = VSWR = Emax / Emin = Imax / Imin Reflection Coefficient is the ratio of reflected voltage to incident voltage. = ZL - ZO / ZL + ZO


What is the derivative of infinity?

Infinity is not defined in exact terms, so there's no sense of diff. & intg. It, but if it is to be taken as constant that we have, infinity + 1 = infinity, it should be zero then, but it isnt practical..


For a open circuit the VSWR is?

the voltage standing wave ratio is defined (1+p)/(1-p), where p is the the reflection coefficient magnitude. p = 1 for an open circuit, therefore the VSWR will approach infinite.


What is the ideal value of vswr?

The ideal value of VSWR is 1 (one), which means that full power which has been arrived to the antenna is emitted to the air. In reality it is always more than 1, which means that some part of power reflected from antenna to the transmission line.
