Coaxial Cable Impedance Formula

Coaxial Cable Impedance is the ratio of voltage to current in a cable of infinite length. It is measured in terms of ohms. Majority of the telephone industry, all the major manufacturers of radio, television, radar, navigation aids, fire control, aircraft, shipbuilding, underwater sound, and many other types of transmitting equipment use coaxial cable. Make use of the coaxial cable impedance formula given below to find the impedance of the coaxial cable.

Formula:

Z = (138 × log10 (d1 / (d2)) / √(R)
F = 11.8 / (√(R) × π × ((d1 + d2) / 2))
T =( (7.354 × R) / (log10(d1 / d2)))/0.3048
D = (140.4 × log10(d1 / d2))/0.3048
V = (1 / √ (R)) × 100


Where,
Z = Impedance
d1 = Dielectric Outer Diameter
d2 = Inner Conductor Diameter
R = Dielectric Constant
F = Cutoff Frequency
T = Capacitance
D = Inductance
V = Velocity of Propagation
