I'm wondering if there is a generally accepted device prefix for
transmission lines. When drawing a schematic, we all name our resistors
"Rx", with x some unique identifier, our capacitors "Cx", for transistors we
have "Tx" or "Qx", and so on. But what about (microstrip or coplanar or
whatever) transmission lines? I mean, they are not exactly "ordinary"
devices, but in the documentation about a circuit's design, I sometimes feel
the need to name a line segment explicitly, like "line [whatever] was
adjusted to yield a phase shift of ...". I'd call them "Lx" (for Line), but
that's reserved for inductors. "LTx" would be a possibility, but I do not
like two-character-prefixes that much.
Any opinions on that?
