Coaxial Cable
A round cable with a central conductor and screening around with a insulating medium between. Used in RF transmission.
- The characteristic impedance is given by:
- where
- Zc = characteristic impedance [Ω]
- μ = μ0μr = permeability
- ε = ε0εr = permittivity
- a = radius of inner conductor
- b = radius of outer conductor
- μ = μ0μr = permeability
