For a connected graph G on n vertices, recall that the reciprocal distance signless Laplacian matrix of G is defined to be RQ(G) = RT (G) + RD (G), where RD (G) is the reciprocal distance matrix, RT (G) = diag(RT1, RT2, ..., RTn) and RTi is the reciprocal distance degree of vertex v(i). In 2022, generalized reciprocal distance matrix, which is defined by RD alpha(G) = alpha RT(G) + (1 - alpha)RD(G), alpha is an element of [0,1], was introduced. In this paper, we give some bounds on the spectral radius of RD alpha(G) and characterize its extremal graph. In addition, we also give the generalized reciprocal distance spectral radius of line graph L(G).
