Abstract
Based on composite right-handed left-handed (CRLH) transmission lines and artificial transmission lines (ATLs), we propose a rat-race coupler (RRC) characterized by reduced size and enhanced bandwidth with respect to its conventional realization in right handed transmission lines (RHTL) technology
