Abstract :
This paper describes the design of a 10 dB unfolded Lange coupler for operation at centering frequency of 5.8 GHz. The coupler is designed using the EDA software that has tuning and optimization features. The coupler is designed to have a coupling factor of 10 plusmn 0.5 dB. In the design, microstripline is implemented. For the fabrication, FR4 substrate is used
