Filter cable design with defected conductor transmission structures.

ABSTRACT: Electrical cables, as the industry's blood vessels and nervous system, require evolving distributed filtering for complex electromagnetic environment adaptability. This article introduces a filter cable design featuring an insulated cylinder coated with a defected conductor transmission structure (DCTS). The DCTS, with a well-designed etched pattern, functions as a boundary condition for transmitting specific frequency electromagnetic waves, similar to a lumped filter circuit. To validate this method, a low-pass filter cable is proposed with six-slot-ring defected structures, utilizing polytetrafluoroethylene as the inner dielectric, encased within a flexible printed circuit board (FPCB)-manufactured DCTS. The proposed cable, with precise dimensions (2.4 mm diameter, 340 mm length), demons
