Title :
Computer-Aided Design of Microstrip Couplers with Accurate Discontinuity Models
Abstract :
Accurate and simple models are presented for the microstrip open end, the gap, the compensated right-angle bend, and the T-junction, both symmetric and non-symmetric. Their importance in computer-aided design is illustrated with a computer program optimizing the physical lay-out of microstrip branch-guide couplers.
