Coplanar and Broadside Coupled Finline Six Port Hybrids

Abstract

Coupled three finline structures are analyzed for application as power dividers and couplers in terms of the normal mode parameters of the structures. These hybrids are then realized for the desired values of the normal mode parameters in the form of both coplanar and broadside coupled finlines. A unified approach to the analysis and design of the six port three way power dividers is presented.
