Abstract :
Up-to-date, asymmetric coupled lines in an inhomogeneous medium have been dealt with either theoretically or by making use of certain properties obtained in practice. According to certain formulas, these properties are only valid for extremely special geometrical configurations. However, we realised from the general theory, by performing numerical applications, that these properties possess an unexpected application domain: they are, in particular, valid for practically all experimental manipulations.
