Abstract :
It is shown that the transfer of longitudinal current to the outer surface of a long length of braided coaxial cable, such as might be used in a `leaky-feeder¿ radiocommunication system, is a function of other parameters besides the surface-transfer impedance of the braid. The dielectric is particularly significant.
