Abstract :
The topology of proposed phase discriminator circuit involves the elements of one type in the form of quadrature couplers. The structure is symmetrc and does not include either transmission line crossings or phase shifters, typically required under such circumstances. The complete phase discriminator can be made as one planar IC. Such a structure of the microwave phase discriminator is introduced for the first time.
