چکیده
Based on composite right/left handed (CRLH) transmission lines (TLs) we propose a backward coupled-line coupler characterized by reduced size and enhanced bandwidth with respect to many other CRLH coupled-line couplers which have been introduced. This symmetric microstrip coupler with quadrature phase difference has also higher coupling-level and wider bandwidth than conventional coupled-line couplers. The proposed CRLH coupled-line coupler has been realized only by conventional TL and grounded stubs without series capacitor (e.g. interdigital capacitor). The design procedure to reach the coupler with predefined coupling-level and characteristic impedance of its ports is clearly presented. The design prototype is a 3-dB microstrip coupler with 0.2 mm spacing between coupled lines over a wide bandwidth of 60% from 2.2 GHz to 4.1 GHz (amplitude balance of 2 dB) centered at 3 GHz. The coupled-line length of the proposed structure is approximately λ g/4. To characterize this structure an equivalent circuit model also has been established. Good agreement between the full-wave simulation and equivalent circuit model has been achieved and the effectiveness of the proposed equivalent circuit model is verified.کلیدواژه ها

اطلاعات بیشتر در مورد COI
COI مخفف عبارت CIVILICA Object Identifier به معنی شناسه سیویلیکا برای اسناد است. COI کدی است که مطابق محل انتشار، به مقالات کنفرانسها و ژورنالهای داخل کشور به هنگام نمایه سازی بر روی پایگاه استنادی سیویلیکا اختصاص می یابد.
کد COI به مفهوم کد ملی اسناد نمایه شده در سیویلیکا است و کدی یکتا و ثابت است و به همین دلیل همواره قابلیت استناد و پیگیری دارد.
