Abstract: A surge protector includes a coaxial through-section having a through inner conductor and a through outer conductor, a stub having a stub inner conductor, a stub outer conductor, a first end and a second end. The stub is coupled to the coaxial through-section, wherein the stub inner conductor is conductively coupled to the through inner conductor at the first end of the stub, and the stub outer conductor is conductively coupled to the through outer conductor at the first end of the stub. The stub inner conductor is substantially hollow and having at least one helical aperture disposed therein. A charge elimination device conductively coupled between the stub inner conductor and a grounding device, and a radio frequency short circuit bypass is electrically coupled between the stub inner conductor and the stub outer conductor. A DC injection port is also conductively coupled between the stub inner conductor and the stub outer conductor.

The stub has a first end and a second end, the stub being coupled to the coaxial through-section, wherein the second inner conductor is conductively coupled to the first inner conductor at the first end of the stub and the second outer conductor is conductively coupled to the first outer conductor at the first end of the stub. The second inner conductor is substantially hollow and has at least one helical aperture disposed therein. A charge elimination device is conductively coupled between the second inner conductor and a grounding device.

Abstract: A distributed strip-type radiating cable comprised of a plurality of generally flat conductive strips disposed in substantially parallel relationship to one or more generally flat dielectric materials, adapted to radiate RF energy for communications applications. The radiating cable is designed to be efficiently and inexpensively manufactured and installed from lightweight, small size materials, and is designed to be easily attached and secured to a variety of surfaces.
