Abstract :
A new form of microstrip coupler, belonging to the general class of interference couplers, is described. Interfering elements are provided by crossover structures and fabrication of the coupler is relatively simple. Preliminary measurements show the directivity to be good, with further improvement available through a tightening of constructional tolerances.
