Abstract :
An important question connected with surface-wave transmission lines is the interaction between them or with other wires which act like surface waveguides. An analysis is made of two parallel lines with the provision that the coupling is small. When the two lines are identical, there is maximum interaction, and under suitable conditions, complete power transfer from one line to the other occurs. The analysis is supplemented by typical examples.
