Abstract
Using an idealized model, we consider VHF wave transmission in a straight mine tunnel that contains a braided coaxial cable. The controlled interchange of energy between the propagation modes can be used to optimize the communication range and allow for coupling to and from portable hand-held antennas. In particular, we show that the optimum lengths for maximum transmission through the leaky cable sections or mode converters predicted here are compatible to those predicted by approximate coupled mode theory.
