Abstract :
Two miniaturized uniplanar 180° hybrid-rings with 0.8 λ g and 0.67 λg circumferences, respectively, are proposed. These hybrid-rings are implemented using the finite ground coplanar waveguide (FGCPW) structure. The sizes of these hybrid-rings are effectively reduced, and broadband performances are also achieved
