Description
Summary:Coupled sliced coaxial cables can provide signal coupling in a compact form factor for 50-and 75-0 systems. With the ready availability of accurate computer-aided-engineering (CAE) tools, it is possible to apply some basic formulas for calculating the dimensions of these structures to achieve a desired amount of coupling on different substrate materials. What follows is a straightforward approach to calculating those dimensions and analyzing coupler designs fabricated with coupled sliced coaxial cables.
