Abstract
A stripline RF transmission cable has a generally planar inner conductor surrounded by a dielectric layer that is surrounded by a corrugated outer conductor. The corrugations may be, for example, annular or helical. The outer conductor has a top section and a bottom section which transition to a pair of edge sections that interconnect the top section with the bottom section. The top section, bottom section and the inner conductor may be provided with generally equal widths. A spacing between the inner conductor and the dielectric layer may be reduced proximate a mid section of the inner conductor. The inner conductor may also be corrugated generally normal to a longitudinal extend of the inner conductor.
