  • Abstract
    In the microwave band, substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) couplers take the advantages of low profile, low insertion loss, low interference etc., but suffer from the big size. In this letter, a novel half mode substrate integrated waveguide (HMSIW) 3-dB coupler is proposed, which keeps the good performance of the SIW coupler with nearly a half reduction in size. Simulated results are in agreement with the measured data
