What does this diagram show? I could make a wild guess, but then I'd waste my time and yours if it turned out I was wrong. Can you describe it for us, and maybe give us a link to the page where it came from?

I was using the Smith chart to determine the input impedance of a transmission line that has a reflection from the load. One can do this if one knows the characteristic impedance Zo, the degree of mismatch of the load ZL and the length of the transmission line in wavelengths. However, my question is: Consider the input impedance of a wave which appears back at the source after reflection from the load and has traveled for some fraction of a wavelength. The impedance of this wave as it...
