Abstract :
A novel technique to implement a two output broad band RF hybrid coupler based on transversal signal processing is proposed and practically demonstrated. It features broadband frequency range, stable phase difference at outputs, 50 ohm input/output impedance, and low noise characteristics. This technique is suitable for non-coherent optic implementation.
