Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of high-frequency signal transmission in a pre-branching cable, and in particular to a method for transmitting high-frequency signals in a pre-branching cable. Background Art
[0002] Pre-branched cable is a cable system with a pre-designed and installed branch structure, which is used to provide multiple branch points on the cable line to provide power or signal transmission for different devices or systems. This cable system is usually used in situations where multiple branch points are required, such as power distribution inside buildings, data centers, communication base stations, etc.
[0003] The high-frequency signal in the pre-branch cable refers to the electrical signal with a higher frequency transmitted in the pre-branch cable. These signals may be used in applications such as high-speed data transmission, wireless communication, radar systems, etc. High-frequency signals are easily affected by various factors during transmission, such as signal attenuation, reflection, multipath effect, etc., so special design and optimization methods are required to ensure stable signal transmission.
[0004] Generally, traditional cable design and selection will select the appropriate cable type and specifications according to application requirements, design branch points on the cables, and usually use simple right-angle or arc-shaped branch structures to transmit high-frequency signals to the target device through the cables and branch points, and receive and process the signals at the target device end. However, this traditional right-angle or arc-shaped branch structure can easily cause modal conversion of the electromagnetic field, resulting in signal distortion and energy loss. Impedance mismatch at the branch point can cause reflected waves, and multipath effects can cause signal interference and attenuation. High-frequency signals are easily interfered with by environmental noise and other signals during transmission, resulting in a decrease in signal quality. Traditional branch cable design lacks systematic optimization and standardized processes, and it is difficult to ensure the stability and reliability of signal transmission.
[0005] Based on this, the present invention provides a method for transmitting high-frequency signals in a pre-branching cable to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Summary of the invention
