Abstract:
An electrical transmission line arrangement comprising:a first section of a conductor with a main extension in two planes; a first section of a ground plane extending essentially in parallel with and separated from the first conductor section on a first side of the first conductor section and separated from the first conductor section by a certain distance and having a main extension in the same two planes as the first conductor section, a second conductor section and a third conductor section each having main extensions in the same two planes as the first conductor section, the second conductor section being displaced in parallel with respect to the first conductor section, and the third conductor section being displaced in parallel with respect to the second conductor section; and a second ground plane section and a third ground plane section each having main extensions in the same two planes as the first ground plane section, the second ground plane section being displaced in parallel with respect to the first ground plane section, and the third ground plane section being displaced in parallel with respect to the second ground plane section, wherein the parallel displacements of the second and third conductor sections and the second and third ground plane sections are in a direction which is at right angles to the two planes which define the main extensions of the first, second, and third conductor sections and the first, second, and third ground plane sections, each of the first, second, and third conductor sections being electrically coupled to a closest of the other two conductor sections, each of the first, second, and third ground plane sections being electrically coupled to a closest of the other two ground plane sections, and each of the first, second, and third conductor sections being separated from a corresponding one of the first, second, and third ground plane sections by a dielectric material.
