A cable includes: a signal core module including a pair of inner conductors and an inner insulative layer enclosing the inner conductors, the inner conductors extending parallel to each other, the inner insulative layer forming a spacing region between said inner conductors; a grounding core arranged beside the signal core module; and a metal shielding layer enclosing the signal core module and the grounding core.

Stretchable high frequency transmission lines and high-frequency filters comprising the transmission lines are provided. The transmission lines provide low power loss, even at microwave and millimeter wave frequencies. The transmission lines are thin and flexible and can be stretched without a significant degradation of their scattering parameters. As a result, the transmission lines have applications as interconnects in stretchable and flexible integrated circuits (IC) and circuit device components, such as flexible transistors and flexible diodes.

A composite cable includes a first twisted-pair wire formed by twisting a pair of first electric wires which each include a first center conductor and a first insulation, a second twisted-pair wire formed by twisting a pair of second electric wires which each include a second center conductor and a second insulation, a pair of third electric wires arranged between the first and second twisted-pair wires, the third electric wires each having a larger outer diameter than the first and second electric wires and including a third center conductor with a larger cross-sectional area than the first and second center conductors and a third insulation, and a tape member spirally wound around an assembled article formed by twisting the first and second twisted-pair wires and the pair of third electric wires together. The twisted-pair wires, the assembled article and the tape member are twisted or wound in a same direction.

A power supply apparatus requests the transmission of a requested PDO. A power receiving apparatus transmits the requested PDO in response to the request. The power supply apparatus modifies a first PDO list based on the requested PDO when it is possible to do so. The first PDO list is modified when the requested voltage is not defined in the first PDO list in a case in which a power supply circuit of the power supply apparatus is capable of supplying the request voltage indicated by the requested PDO. Subsequently, negotiation is performed based on the first PDO list thus modified.
