FAQ

What is the Characteristic Wave Impedance?
Characteristic Wave Impedance of an electromagnetic wave is the ratio of the transverse components of the electric and magnetic fields. Characteristic Wave Impedance is usually measured using the Kilohm for Electric Resistance. Note that the value of Characteristic Wave Impedance is always positive.
Can the Characteristic Wave Impedance be negative?
No, the Characteristic Wave Impedance, measured in Electric Resistance cannot be negative.
What unit is used to measure Characteristic Wave Impedance?
Characteristic Wave Impedance is usually measured using the Kilohm[kΩ] for Electric Resistance. Ohm[kΩ], Megohm[kΩ], Microhm[kΩ] are the few other units in which Characteristic Wave Impedance can be measured.
