A novel design of differential phase shifters and baluns with arbitrary bandwidth using Composite Right/Left-Handed Transmission Lines(CRLH- TL)
نویسندگان
چکیده
A principle and design procedure of differential phase shifters and baluns with a specified bandwidth is given. Phase shifters and baluns proposed here comprise of two transmission lines(TL), one is conventional while the other is CRLH-TL. The operating frequency is properly chosen as to obtain a maximum bandwidth. The bandwidth is related to number of unit cells comprising CRLH-TL.A Wilkinson balun with a 180 10 ± bandwidth of 2.12GHz, centred at 1.5GHz is designed as an example.

In this paper, a compact high-pass filter (HPF) with a sharp rejection response based on the balanced composite right-left handed (CRLH) transmission line (TL) concept is proposed. A series LC resonator using an interdigital capacitor and meander lines is designed. Also, a meander spiral complementary split ring resonator (MSCSRR) is used to realize the parallel LC resonator. The high-pass filt...

A novel kind of symmetrical backward-wave coupled-line coupler with arbitrary coupling level is proposed in this paper which is based on resonant-type composite right-/left-handed transmission lines (CRLH TLs). First, an equivalent circuit model and procedure for circuit parameters extraction are presented to reveal the inherent nature of the unit cell of the CRLH coupler. Then a CRLH TL compos...
