Abstract

At radio frequencies and in particular those associated with LTE and 4G telecommunications in the region of 1 GHz and above, inherent problems have been found with historically employed interconnections that lead to distortions and impairments to the transmitted signal generically termed PIM. This invention relates to creation of a connector system that separates the mechanical connection features from the forward and return transmission path components by use of non-conductive connector bodies and WaveWay a carefully shaped constrained linear signal path with low resistance and capacitance mating surfaces limiting parallel path distortions and smoother shapes to limit 3rd harmonic and other distortions and lower pressure contact requirements to provide at least equivalent PIM performance to conventional connectors at lower frequencies ˜800 MHz and improved PIM performance at 1 GHz and above.
