  • Abstract
    A device which transmits wide-band signals in the VHF range across a rotating structure is described. It has potential application to rotating antenna systems and to telemetry systems between stationary and rotating elements. No electrical contact is necessary between the stationary and rotating terminals, and bandwidths on the order of 1000:1 are feasible. From the theoretical analysis given here, predicted device behavior agrees well with measurements on a prototype model.
