Abstract

The invention discloses a branch line coupler and a manufacture method thereof. The branch line coupler comprises a first balanced port, a second balanced port, a third balanced port and a fourth balanced port, wherein the first balanced port is connected with the fourth balanced port via a quarter-wave transmission line with an impedance of Z2; the first balanced port is connected with the second balanced port via a quarter-wave transmission line with an impedance of Z3; the second balanced port is connected with the third balanced port via a quarter-wave transmission line with an impedance of Z2; the third balanced port is connected with the fourth balanced port via a quarter-wave transmission line with an impedance of Z3; each balanced port comprises two single ports; the two single ports of each balanced port are connected via a half-wave transmission line with an impedance of Z1. Beneficial effects of the invention: the branch line coupler has power distribution and phase distribution functions for the differential mode signal and can effectively suppress the common-mode signal.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of microwave technology, and more specifically, to a branch line coupler and a manufacturing method thereof. Background technique [0002] In microwave and millimeter wave commercial and military communication systems, the branch line coupler is an important device in the microwave system. It distributes the amplitude and phase of the microwave signal according to a certain ratio. Branch line couplers are used in balanced amplifiers, microwave network analyzers, automatic gain controls, and power devices in signal generators. And it plays an important role in the microwave components and the whole machine to realize various functions. [0003] Traditional branch line couplers are designed by introducing a quarter-wavelength transmission line, and they are all single-ended designs. The single-ended branch line coupler does not have common-mode rejection capability, so it cannot suppress environmental noise well, and ...
