  • Abstract
    One of the problems that appear in the directional couplers designed with coupled transmission lines embedded in nonhomogeneous medium is their poor directivity. In this work several multilayer configurations for high directivity coupler design are studied by means of a variational technique in the spectral domain, and a set of curves for an optimum design are included.
