Which of the following is used to measure SWR?
D
Answer
Receivers, transmitters, and measurements
Type
A
Directional wattmeter
B
Vector network analyzer
C
Antenna analyzer
D
All these choices are correct
Answer Notes
Standing Wave Ratio (SWR) indicates the impedance match between a transmitter and its antenna system. A directional wattmeter measures forward and reflected power, from which SWR can be easily calculated.
Vector network analyzers (VNAs) and modern antenna analyzers measure the complex impedance of the antenna system directly and use this data to instantly compute and display the SWR. Because all three devices provide the necessary information or direct readout to determine SWR, all choices are correct.
