Abstract :
This paper presents a wideband directional bridge with a range of operating frequencies from 300 kHz to 13.5 GHz. The original topology of the directional bridge was designed, using the multilayer printed circuit board (PCB) technology, with the top layer of the laminated microwave dielectric Rogers RO4350, as resistive elements surface mounted (SMD) components are used. The circuit is designed for a nominal value of 16 dB coupling and an insertion loss of 1.6 dB.
