MSLine.get_properties

rfnetwork.elements.MSLine.get_properties

MSLine.get_properties(frequency)

Returns characteristic impedance and effective dielectric constant over frequency. Equations are the same as those Roger’s MWI tool [1]. See page 149 of [2] for loss equations.

Return type:

ldarray

Parameters

frequencyfloat | np.ndarray

frequency value(s) to evaluate properties at.

Returns

ldarray

Mx3 array, where M is the number of frequency points. Columns are z0, effective er, and loss per inch [dB].
