DEFINITION

Classification: 333/236

LONG LINES:

(under the class definition) Structure providing a single

channel of indefinite length for conveying and guiding wave energy, and having distributed electrical parameters so related or proportioned as to determine the wave propagating characteristics of the channel.

SEE OR SEARCH THIS CLASS, SUBCLASS:

12, for long lines with means to eliminate interference currents therein or with means to minimize radiation therefrom.

22, for dissipative terminations for transmission lines.

23, for artificial lines simulating a transmission line.

26, for coupling networks for connecting balanced to unbalanced circuits or vice versa which include a long line element.

27, for transmission lines with coupling networks at the opposed ends. 33+, for impedance matching networks which include a long line element.

202+, for filters which include a long line element.

174, Electricity: Conductors and Insulators, appropriate subclasses for conductor structure other than loaded lines and lines defined as having long line characteristics; see

27, and 113+ for parallel or twisted conductor structures; subclasses 28 and 102+ for coaxial and shielded cable structure; subclasses 32+ for anti-inductive conductor structures; subclasses 37+ for underground conductor structures; and subclasses 40+ for overhead conductor structures.

178, Telegraphy, for telegraph transmission line systems; and particularly

45+, for loaded circuits; subclass 63 for long cable systems; and subclass 69 for line-clearing and circuit-maintenance systems.

307, Electrical Transmission or Interconnection Systems, appropriate subclasses, particularly

146, and 147+ for miscellaneous systems of distribution with transmission lines usually of the electrically short type.
