Abstract: This invention relates to a coaxial cable connector assembly in which a coaxial transmission line terminator is attached to an armor sheath and bushing. This assembly provides for easy adjustment so that the length of the coaxial transmission line matches the length of the protective armor. The invention provides for a coaxial cable and terminator, the coaxial cable, a metallic braid, and a cable terminator having a void space capable of receiving an end of the coaxial cable and a jacket surrounding substantially all of the braid of the cable and abutting the cable terminator.

Abstract: A coaxial cable connector is provided comprising an inner conductor, insulating material, outer conductor, and dielectric restrainer so molded polymeric material located in grooves selectively positioned between the inner conductor and insulating material and outer conductor and insulating material.

Abstract: A voltage ratio doubler circuit comprising an input node maintained at a constant input voltage V.sub.IN ; an output node at an output voltage V.sub.OUT ; and means, coupled between the input node and the output node, for selectively determining the ratio V.sub.OUT /V.sub.IN to equal either (a) a value K' or (b) a value K'/2 determined by impedances in the doubler circuit. In a first embodiment of the invention, the impedance of the load placed at the output node is matched with the system impedance of the doubler circuit. In this first embodiment, the input impedance, and hence the level of V.sub.IN at the input node does not vary regardless of which voltage ratio is selected. In a second embodiment, the load impedance and doubler circuit system impedance do not match. In this second embodiment, a leveller means is included. The leveller means provides a reference voltage V.sub.REF which varies with changes in input impedance at the input node. The reference voltage V.sub.REF is used to maintain V.sub.

Abstract: A coaxial connector having a useful frequency range extended to 26.5 GHz is characterized by two separate dielectric support members. A first dielectric member is injection-molded into the annular space between the center conductor and the outer shell at a location rearward of the center conductor mating region. Injection molding provides positive longitudinal support for the center conductor without use of means such as epoxy or crimping which cause higher losses and introduces mismatches around the center conductor. A second dielectric member is press-fit into the shell to surround but not contact the center conductor in the mating region. The second dielectric member is contoured to support the center conductor during mating, to provide the desired characteristic impedance, and to compensate for distortion produced by the gap subsisting between the second dielectric members of a mated plug and jack.

Abstract: A coaxial transmission line for u.h.f. waves, and particularly for use with slotted line equipment, in which the center conductor is supported coaxially within the outer conductor by spaced dielectric pins extending radially between said conductors, wherein wave reflections are minimized by means of counter-bored areas in the form of shallow depressions in the surface of the inner conductor where it is engaged by said pins, said depressions completely surrounding the point of engagement of each pin with said inner conductor and being dimensioned to produce an inductive effect to compensate for the capacitive effect of the dielectric pins.
