Abstract
High field magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
systems often use short sections of transmission lines for
generating and sensing alternating magnetic fields. Due to
distributed nature of transmission lines, the generated field is
inhomogeneous. This work investigates the application of series
capacitors to improve the field homogeneity. The resulting
magnetic field distribution is estimated analytically and evaluated
numerically. The results are compared to a case of a conventional
transmission line coil realization.
