Abstract
An inductor assembly includes a fixture element having a central core and support structures coupled to and projecting outwardly from the central core, each of the support structures having an outer edge with a notched profile of indentations extending toward the central core, and a helical inductor having multiple turns, the turns being seated in the indentations of the at least two support structures. The support structures may be equidistantly spaced apart from one another about the central core by air gaps. The inductor assembly may be incorporated in an impedance matching network, and one or more impedance matching networks may be incorporated in a defrosting system. The impedance matching network may be a single-ended network or a double-ended network.
