Abstract
Intermodulation interference arising from nonlinearities in braided coaxial cables at microwave frequencies is discussed. Detailed investigations have been carried out using a large number of commercially available and specially constructed cables to isolate and assess the relative contributions of different parameters of coaxial cables responsible for the generation of intermodulation products (IP's) at L-, S-, and C-band frequencies centered on 1.5, 3, and 5 GHz. Ambient temperature in the case of polythene dielectric cables and oxides on copper-wire braids affect considerably the IP's generated in a coaxial cable.Keywords
