Summary
| Description |
English: First page of an article on the use of a Goubau line as a feedline (transmission line) for a UHF television antenna. The Goubau line, invented by G. Goubau in 1950, is an unusual type of radio transmission line used to conduct radio waves at UHF and microwave frequencies, consisting of a single insulated wire. At the ends, metal cones serve as a "launcher" to send the waves along the wire and "catcher" to receive the waves at the destination end into a coaxial cable. It has lower attenuation (power losses) per meter than more common transmission line such as coaxial cable or twin lead. Alterations to image: Cropped out the text of the article, leaving the illustrations and captions, and rotated image by a few degrees to justify. |
