A Compact and Wideband Coupled-Line Coupler with High Coupling Level Using Shunt Periodic Stubs

A wideband microstrip forward-wave coupled-line coupler with high coupling value is presented. Compared with the conventional edge-coupled microstrip forward-wave coupler, this symmetrical structure, consisting periodic shunt stubs between the two coupled-lines, achieves wider operating bandwidth an...
