  • Abstract
    To improve the performance of the recently introduced three-section hybrid coupler, a new design for the centre section is introduced. Instead of using a broadside coupler, a multilayer MMIC coupler is employed for the centre section. The very significant improvements in the measured results of the new compact three-section hybrid coupler are presented.
