Abstract
A device and method for altering the line reactance of a transmission line having a transmission line, a first floating conductor and a grounding (shielding) conductor. The first floating conductor is positioned between and electrically insulated from the transmission line and the grounding conductor. A source and a load are connected at opposite ends of the transmission line.
Claims16
An electromagnetic wrap for optimizing the line reactance of a transmission line comprising:
- a first node;
- a second node;
- a transmission line having a length;
- said first node and said second node electrically connected to said transmission line at opposite ends;
- a first floating conductor having a length;
- said first floating conductor and said transmission line separated by a first insulator;
- a grounding conductor electrically connected to earth-ground;
- said grounding conductor and said first floating conductor separated by a second insulator;
- and
- said first floating conductor at least partially positioned between said transmission line and said grounding conductor.
