Diagram of leaky feeder cable. A leaky feeder is a communications system used in underground mines and inside tunnels. [1] Manufacturers and cabling professionals use the term "radiating cable" [2] [3] [better source needed] [4] as this implies that the cable is designed to radiate: something that a typical coaxial cable is generally not intended to do.
An RF connector (radio frequency connector) is an electrical connector designed to work at radio frequencies in the multi-megahertz range. RF connectors are typically used with coaxial cables and are designed to maintain the shielding that the coaxial design offers.
FAKRA connector is a modified SMB connector with a keyed and colour coded plastic housing and latch, used in the automotive industry [5] SMC connector; SSMA connector is a 50 Ohm nominal impedance RF connector which utilizes a 10–36 threaded coupling and is essentially a scaled down version of the SMA. They are characterized by compactness ...
The N connector (also, type-N connector) is a threaded, weatherproof, medium-size RF connector used to join coaxial cables. It was one of the first connectors capable of carrying microwave -frequency signals, and was invented in the 1940s by Paul Neill of Bell Labs , after whom the connector is named.
The UHF connector [4] is a name for a fairly common, but old type of threaded RF connector. [5] [6] The connector design was invented in the 1930s for use in the radio industry. [7] [4] It is a widely used standard connector for HF transmission lines on full-sized radio equipment, with BNC connectors predominating for smaller, hand-held ...
Peak pulse power handling, driven by voltage breakdown, is more or less frequency independent for any given size (and can be deduced by assuming ~300 V RMS per mm of inner to outer spacing), but the average power, limited by losses heating the centre conductors, increases approximately with the square root of the operating frequency.
The F connector is an inexpensive, gendered, threaded, compression connector for radio frequency signals. It has good 75 Ω impedance match for frequencies well over 1 GHz [2] and has usable bandwidth up to several GHz. Connectors mate using a 3/8-32UNEF thread. The female connector has a socket for the center conductor and external threads.
It may be said that radio interference and its correction arose with the first spark-gap experiment of Marconi in the late 1800s. [3] As radio communications developed in the first half of the 20th century, interference between broadcast radio signals began to occur and an international regulatory framework was set up to ensure interference-free communications.
