4.2 Connecting Sensor
The sensors have to be connected between source and load. They measure the power
flux in both directions, i.e. from the source to the load (forward power) and conversely
(reverse power). The ratio of forward and reverse power is a measure for the matching
of the load which can be expressed as standing wave ratio (SWR), return loss or
reflection coefficient.
