Abstract
A woven electrical transmission cable A is illustrated which includes a plurality of warp elements (12, 12, 14) interwoven with a weft element (16). A number of the warp elements are ground conductors (10) and a number are signal conductors (12). The ground and signal conductors are arranged in clusters (D, E) which include signal conductor pairs (12a, 12b and 12c, 12d) isolated by ground conductors (10a-10c and 10d-10f), respectively. An input signal is split at the input (20, 24) of the cluster between the signal conductor pair which is then combined at the output to provide a single output signal (28, 30). The location of the ground conductors relative to the signal conductors is fixed in the cable by interweaving of the weft (16) and warp binder yarns (14) together with the warp conductors (10, 12) whereby the characteristic impedance is controlled.
