Abstract:
1. A coupled transmission line system comprising: a trio of independent transmission lines, each adapted to transport signals from a signal source to a signal destination, the trio of independent transmission lines comprising a first transmission line, a second transmission line, and a third transmission line, each of the first, second and third transmission lines oriented in a substantially uniform direction along a transmission axis, and each of the first, second and third transmission lines further oriented such that an imaginary plane parallel to the transmission axis will intersect no more than two of the first, second and third transmission lines and such that any predetermined pair of the first, second and third transmission lines have a substantially equal differential mode characteristic impedance (Zdiff); and the any predetermined pair of the first, second and third transmission lines exhibit substantially high common mode characteristic impedance (Zcomm), comprising forty (40) or more ohms.
