Dual-Band Rat Race Coupler with Different Power Division Ratio sat Two Bands
In this manuscript, a design guideline for dual-band rat-
race coupler with two different power division ratios has been
provided. The dual-band conditions are established based on the
electrical nature of the coupler itself and the dual-band C-section
coupled line instead of using a dual-band equivalent transmission
line. The design equations are solved numerically to obtain the
electrical parameters of the proposed coupler. A design example
has been provided to validate the proposed concept.
