            Abstract : 
Design method of the broadband, compact, and mechanically stable 3dB coupler with very flat coupling are demonstrated using a directly-connected image guide. The experimental results agree reasonably well with the theoretical ones by forming appropriate tapers even at frequencies where higher modes could be excited.
