A geometrically-structured coaxial cable may prevent infiltration of water
vapor and other contaminants by using a closed cell structure. The cable
may be fabricated by wrapping bubble tape around its central conductor.
Alternatively, plastic may be extruded through channels to create a
plurality of layers. In either case, these layers are staggered in a
zig-zag pattern to ensure that no radial spokes connect the inner and
outer conductors of the coaxial cable without passing through a plurality
of dielectric layers.
