Apparatus for reducing electromagnetic radiation from a differentially driven transmission line used for high data rate communication in a computerized tomography system

摘要

Apparatus for reducing electromagnetic radiation from a differentially driven transmission line for high data rate communication in a computerized tomography system is provided. The apparatus includes a carrier generator to generate carrier signals having an adjustable phase shift angle between one another. The phase angle differential is selected to avoid formation of leakage signals due to misalignment occurring between the coupler and the transmission line during relative movement therebetween, thereby reducing electromagnetic radiation from the transmission line and the coupler.
