Abstract :
A broad-band, multisection, differential phase shifter with excellent phase ripple has been designed. The phase shifter exhibits no more than a one degree error from nominal over more than a 90% bandwidth. The novel parallel connection of the coupled lines makes it feasible to realize the circuit using edge coupling.
