Abstract :
An equivalent circuit analysis has been designed to study a radially thick helix to obtain various design parameters: capacitance per unit length, inductance per unit length, characteristic impedance, dispersion relation, and interaction impedance. This analysis does not require the solution of a complex determinantal dispersion relation as needed in field analysis. The analysis has been verified by matching the dispersion results with the experimental values published elsewhere
