Design of Multisection Asymmetric Couple-Line Couplers with Rotated Tightly- Coupled Section and Reduced Coupling Coefficient Requirements
نویسندگان
چکیده
A novel solution of broadband asymmetric multisection coupled-line directional couplers has been proposed in which the required coupling of the tightlycoupled section is reduced. The coupling coefficient reduction has been achieved by the appropriate connection of a tightly-coupled section which has been rotated and connected with the remaining sections in such a way that the transmission and coupled ports are interchanged. It has been shown that in such circuits it is possible to achieve equal-ripple coupling characteristics similar to the classic multisection asymmetric coupled-line couplers. The numerical calculations of the proposed couplers have been performed and the obtained results are presented in a tabular form. The presented concept has been confirmed by measurements of the manufactured threesection asymmetric coupled-line directional coupler operating in the frequency range 0.5-2.5 GHz.

Development of Forward-wave Directional Couplers Loaded by Periodic Shunt Shorted Stubs
In this paper a new procedure for designing forward-wave directional couplers using periodic shunt short circuited stubs is proposed. A new type of cell using these stubs, which enlarge the phase difference between even- and odd modes of a uniform microstrip coupled line is introduced. Using the equivalent circuit model for even- and odd-modes of the proposed cell, the elements of the ABCD tra...
