Claims12
A leaky co-axial cable arrangement, comprising:
- a co-axial cable;
- a plurality of radiation slots arranged on said co-axial cable;
- and
- an activation arrangement configured for affecting predetermined regions on said coaxial cable to selectively activate or deactivate at least one of said plurality of radiation slots to provide said leaky co-axial cable arrangement,
- wherein said activation arrangement comprises a plurality of conductive sheets covering said radiation slots, and said plurality of conductive sheets are configured to change at least one of shape, size, or orientation in order to activate or deactivate said slots.
A leaky co-axial cable arrangement, comprising:
- a co-axial cable;
- a plurality of radiation slots arranged on said co-axial cable;
- and
- an activation arrangement configured for affecting predetermined regions on said coaxial cable to selectively activate or deactivate at least one of said plurality of radiation slots to provide said leaky co-axial cable arrangement,
- wherein said activation arrangement comprises a plurality of layered removable sheets of material.
A leaky co-axial cable arrangement, comprising:
- a co-axial cable;
- a plurality of radiation slots arranged on said co-axial cable;
- and
- an activation arrangement configured for affecting predetermined regions on said coaxial cable to selectively activate or deactivate at least one of said plurality of radiation slots to provide said leaky co-axial cable arrangement,
- wherein said activation arrangement comprises an absorbing tape covering one or more of the radiation slots of said leaky co-axial cable arrangement.
A leaky co-axial cable arrangement, comprising:
- a co-axial cable;
- a plurality of radiation slots arranged on said co-axial cable;
- and
- an activation arrangement configured for affecting predetermined regions on said coaxial cable to selectively activate or deactivate at least one of said plurality of radiation slots to provide said leaky co-axial cable arrangement,
- wherein said activation arrangement comprises a conductive sheet configured to be breakable to activate or deactivate said radiation slots.
A leaky co-axial cable arrangement, comprising:
- a co-axial cable;
- a plurality of radiation slots arranged on said co-axial cable;
- and
- an activation arrangement configured for affecting predetermined regions on said coaxial cable to selectively activate or deactivate at least one of said plurality of radiation slots to provide said leaky co-axial cable arrangement,
- wherein said activation arrangement comprises a deformable outer casing, which is configured for providing said plurality of radiation slots through deformation.
