Abstract

Wideband directional couplers using broadside coupled-lines in stripline, suspended stripline, and inverted suspended stripline are systematically designed and compared. The proposed couplers are composed of multi-section broadside coupled-lines. The fabricated couplers have less than 2 dB insertion loss, typical 10-20 dB directivity, and over 15 dB isolation for a wide frequency range of 2 to 18 GHz. Among the proposed couplers, the broadside coupler in stripline showed the best performance.
