Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

An optimized version of the previously reported Elastic Tube Splice 1,2 has been developed. Splice losses were measured, yielding an average of 0.04 dB with a very small spread in values. The optimization consisted in modification of dimensions, selection of a different material, and refinement of molding procedures.
