#208: Visualizing RF Standing Waves on Transmission Lines

This video illustrates how RF (radio frequency) standing waves are created in transmission lines - through the addition of the forward (transmitted) wave and the reflected wave that results from improperly terminating the line or matching the load or antenna to the transmission line impedance. I have done several videos that relate to transmission lines, terminations and reflections - all of which tell a piece of the story. This video is another piece, and I hope it helps you to understand how standing waves are formed and what the "look" like. This wikipedia link has some great graphics (shown in my video):

...and if you read this far, here's a challenge...
Brownie points to you if you can tell me how I created the "sliding" waveforms and displayed the static standing wave in the first half of the video.
