MIL-T-81490A Transmission Lines - Test for Transverse Electromagnetic Mode

MIL-T-81490A is a military standard for transmission lines designed to operate in transverse electromagnetic mode (TEM). TEM transmission lines are widely used in microwave and millimeter wave applications where they can provide low loss and low dispersion transmission of signals.

The standard covers design, performance and testing requirements for TEM transmission lines, including coaxial cables and waveguides. It includes environmental testing and performance requirements under extreme conditions, as well as standards for the electrical and mechanical properties of transmission lines.

Some of the key requirements outlined in MIL-T-81490A include the maximum allowable attenuation for different frequencies, minimum and maximum operating temperatures, minimum and maximum power handling capabilities, and maximum voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR).

The standard also contains requirements for materials used in the construction of transmission lines, including permitted metal types, dielectric materials, and coatings.

In general, MIL-T-81490A provides a set of standardized requirements that ensure TEM transmission lines meet the performance and reliability standards required for military and aerospace applications. It serves as a reference for manufacturers, designers and users of TEM transmission lines, helping to provide consistent and reliable performance in different systems and applications.
