    The document is a system VSWR calculator that calculates the voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) and return loss of a wireless communication system operating at 1900 MHz. It summarizes the maximum VSWR, return loss, component loss, cable length, insulation loss, and estimated reflection percentage for each component in the system. The total insertion loss is calculated as 2.80 dB. Based on the component specifications, the typical system reflection is 0.1295, VSWR is 1.30, and return loss is 17.8 dB, while the worst case system reflection is 0.2523, VSWR is 1.67, and return loss is 12.0 dB.
