VSWR
(Voltage Standing Wave
Ratio)
The impedance match of
the coupler to a 50
system. A VSWR of 1:1 is
optimal.
Return Loss
Insertion Loss
Isolation
Phase Balance
The impedance match of
the coupler to a 50
system. Return Loss is
an alternate means to
express VSWR.
The input power divided
by the sum of the power
at the two output ports.
The input power divided
by the power at the
isolated port.
The difference in phase
angle between the two
output ports.
