Characteristics of directional coupler

Power dividers and directional couplers are passive devices used mostly in the field of radio technology. An essential feature of directional couplers is that they only couple power . The output signals are unequal in amplitude. The larger signal is at the main-line output port.

The smaller signal is at the coupled port.

The main-line insertion loss depends upon the signal level at the coupled .

The device is normally used to split the input signal and distributed power.

The even and odd mode characteristic impedances are mentioned in the design part. At this point, in order to analyze the coupled line directional coupler we need to use an even-odd mode analysis. The schematic circuit for the coupled lines are shown in Figure 5. As it can be seen from the figure that our coupler which we . This loss directly subtracts from the dynamic range of the measurement. High power handling characteristics of directional couplers are. We will measure (i)main line and .

Directional Coupler characteristics. The purpose of this paper is to review some of the properties of directional coupler. Attenuation measurements also become more accu- rate when directional couplers are used since reflection. The relative importance of each of these characteristics.

Coupling between two transmission lines is introduced by their proximity to each other. Coupling effects may be undesirable, such as crosstalk in printed circuits, or they may be desirable, as in directional couplers . Abstract: In this paper, an easy-to-used method to predict the characteristics of SIW-based directional couplers is given. The simplified ray tracing method is presented and Floquet theorem is used to deduce the criterion of via spacing for the coupling window. Numerical show that this method can rapidly and correctly . Abstract -Waveguide electro-optic modulators are of much interest for analog optical transmission. Here, a theoretical analysis of the nonlineari- ties of the intensity . EIn this paper, an easy to used method to predict the characteristics of SIW based directional couplers is given.

We distinguish between quantities that we can determine with test equipment and calibrate out, vs.
