Specific capacitance of coaxial waveguide ========================================= A coaxial waveguide is an electrical cable consisting of a central conductor and a shield arranged coaxially and separated by an insulating material or an air gap. It is used to transmit radio frequency electrical signals. The specific capacitance of a coaxial waveguide depends on the radius of the outer conductor and the radius of the inner conductor, as well as on the permittivity of the insulator material. ..
