Abstract
A dual-band rat-race coupler is proposed with double-sided parallel stripline topology, phase inverter and E-shaped impedance transformers. The developed component shows a miniaturised size and a flexible frequency ratio of two operating bands. For validation, a prototype operating at 0.9/1.8 GHz has been designed and measured with a very compact configuration and good performance has been obtained.
