A parallel plate wave-guide structure in a layered flexible/formable medium for
transmitting complementary signals, including: at least two parallel signal conductor
plates, placed in substantially close proximity, separated by a conductor-to-conductor
dielectric material, and having a controlled impedance contained between the at
least two parallel complementary signal conductor plates dominated by odd mode
propagation of transverse wave components between the at least two parallel complementary
signal conductor plates; at least two parallel reference plates forming a parallel
plate reference system parallel to and surrounding the at least two parallel complementary
signal conductor plates; dielectric materials that are contained between each of
the at least two parallel complementary signal conductor plates and a corresponding
parallel reference plate; a partial rectangular wave-guide structure comprised
of the parallel plate reference system, such that each of the at least two parallel
reference plates are electrically interconnected periodically.
