Abstract
Abstract A radiating cable is constructed from an inner conductor and a concentric outer conductor being separated from each other by a dielectric spacer; the outer conductor has openings of similar size and configuration but their density varies periodically in axial direction. In one example, the openings are arranged in circumferential rows and axial rows, the number of openings for circumferential row varies periodically in axial direction. In another example, a single axial row has its openings spaced in a periodically variable spacing.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 2
Claim 1
Independent Claim
107 words
A radiating coaxial cable, being comprised of an inner conductor, an outer conductor concentrically arranged about the inner conductor, and dieletric means between the conductors, the improvement comprising: openings in the outer conductor, being of uniformly similar shape and size, and arranged at periodically variable density in axial direction in that said openings being arranged in axial rows and in circumferential rows, the axial spacing of the apertures in at least one axial row remaining uniform, the number of apertures in the circumferentially extending rows vary periodically in axial direction so that the intensity of radiation, radially away from the cable, varies correspondingly periodically in axial direction.
