Description
Technical field
The present invention relates to cable connector.More particularly, the present invention relates to one and there is the flat inner conductor coaxial connector that improves passive intermodulation distortion (PIM) electric property and mechanically interconnected characteristic.
Background technology
Coaxial cable connector is for example used in some communication systems, and these communication systems require high-caliber precision and reliability.
Between system installation period, rotatory force may be applied on mounted connector, for example, when the coaxial cable having linked is directed to, is handled in place and/or in order to aim at cable bearer and/or maintenance suspension bracket while being bent towards next interconnection point.The rotation relative to each other of coaxial cable and coaxial connector may damage the integrality of connector, cable and/or cable/connector interconnection.In addition, after installing, pass in time and be applied to distortion on interconnecting parts, bending and/or vibration, can make connector connect degeneration to cable, and/or can introduce PIM.
PIM is a kind of form that the transmission of electrical Interference/signal is degenerated, the transmission of this electrical Interference/signal is degenerated and may be occurred littlely than symmetrical interconnection, and/or when electro-machanical interconnection is passed and mobile or while degenerating, for example, owing to mechanical stress, vibration, thermal cycle, oxidation formation and/or material degeneration in time.PIM is an important quality interconnection characteristic, because can make the electric property of whole RF system degenerate from the PIM of single low quality interconnection.
Existing coaxial cable typically has coaxial configuration, and circular outer conductor is evenly spaced apart with circular interior conductor by dielectric support (as polyethylene etc.).The electric property of dielectric support and the interval between inside and outside conductor limit the characteristic impedance of coaxial cable.The even circumferential at the interval between inside and outside conductor prevents that impedance discontinuity is introduced in coaxial cable, this introducing otherwise can make electric property degenerate.
Strip line is the strap being clamped between the ground plane interconnecting in parallel.The advantage that strip line has is, it is nondispersive, and can be used for carry high frequency RF signal.Strip line can use printed-board technology etc., produces at low cost.But it will be expensive manufacturing strip line by length/large-size.In addition,, in the occasion of not utilizing solid stack printed circuit type strip lines configuration, conductor clamping is not generally from supporting and/or self aligned compared with coaxial cable, and thereby may require significant additional support/reinforcement structure.
Competition in RF cable industry has been primarily focused on and has reduced material and reduce in manufacturing cost, electrical characteristic uniformity, defect minimizing and integrally improved workmanship control.

The inventor has realized that, the of the prior art accepted coaxial cable designs example of circular concentric cross section design geometries causes unnecessarily large coaxial cable, and these coaxial cables have bending radius, the too much metal material cost reducing and/or add significantly manufacture process requirement.
The inventor also has realized that the application of flat inner conductor, compared with conventional circular interior conductor configuration, can realize the accurate tunable capacitance coupling for reduce and/or eliminate PIM from the interconnection of inner conductor connector interface.In addition, also the application of the external conductor dielectric spacer between the interconnection at outside conductor connector interface can cause capacity coupled linkage interface fully, and this linkage interface can be eliminated the possibility producing from the PIM at connector interface completely.
A kind of exemplary strip line RF transmission cable 1 is shown in Fig. 1-3.As the most clearly represented in Fig. 1, the inner conductor 5 of cable 1 is overall flat metal tape, and this inner conductor 5 extends between a pair of inner conductor edge 3.The top section 10 of external conductor 25 and bottom stage 15 can be aligned to inner conductor 5 and parallel, and the width having and inner conductor width are roughly equal.Top and bottom stage 10,15 are transited into convex edge section 20 in each side.Thereby the periphery of inner conductor 5 is fully sealed in the external conductor 25 that comprises top section 10, bottom stage 15 and edge section 20.
