Abstract :
A diplexer based on composite right/left handed (CRLH) transmission lines (TL) is presented in this paper. These TLs have been studied, described and applied in (Okabe et al., 2004), (I-Hsiang Lin et al., 2004) and (Caloz et al., 2004). A simultaneous control of the phase at two different frequencies has been done by using the properties of the CRLH TLs. A diplexer at 950 MHz and 1.8 GHz has been built using this technology.
