This VSWR calculator will calculate return loss, mismatch loss, loss in percentage and the reflection coefficient. As an added bonus, the results are modifiable and can calculate the other values. In order to improve the VSWR, this calculator also has an extra input for adding an attenuator to improve or reduce the system VSWR
