  • Abstract
    Losses associated with the interdigitated conductor structure of the Lange coupler are examined, leading to a modified conductor geometry which exhibits a reduction of up to 10% in loss. Perhaps more importantly, a sensitivity analysis shows this modified geometry to be much less susceptible to manufacturing tolerances.
