A radio-frequency transmission system for a magnetic resonance system has a radio-frequency amplifier and a signal splitter with two inputs and two outputs. The signal splitter is fashioned so that the power of a radio-frequency signal provided at one of the two inputs is divided between the two outputs. A first input the two inputs of the signal splitter is thereby coupled with the output of the radio-frequency amplifier, and the two outputs of the signal splitter respectively serve for connection to different inputs of a transmission antenna of the magnetic resonance system in order to feed the output signals present at the two outputs of the signal splitter into the transmission antenna. The second input of the signal splitter is terminated with a terminating resistor arrangement with a variable reflection factor.
