Electrical Parameters of Precision, Coaxial, Air-dielectric Transmission Lines (open access)

Electrical Parameters of Precision, Coaxial, Air-dielectric Transmission Lines

From Introduction: "Following the guidelines established by this committee, several commercially developed precision connectors have appeared on the market which have led to the wide use of the precision coaxial lines as immittance standards. This paper has been prepared to alleviate this situation by providing graphs from which the electrical parameters of the lines may be determined rapidly and accurately."
