A planar microstrip coupler with enhanced power coupling

Abstract:

In this Letter, we present the design of a planar microstrip coupler where power coupling between two parallel microstrip lines can easily be controlled. Enhancement of power coupling is done via two small slots in the ground plane underneath the microstrip pair. The ground plane slots force the field lines near the edge of each microstrip to cross to the adjacent microstrip. The magnitude of the power coupling can easily be controlled by adjusting the length of the slots. Here, we describe t...
