1. Introduction The directional couplers are inherently assumed as four-port devices, which consisted of two transmission lines that are electromagnetically coupled to each other. The first port is named as input, and the second one as output or transmitted, the third one as sampling or coupled and the fourth one as isolated or terminated. By using a special design the input power is divided between output and coupled port in a certain ratio named coupling factor. The required value for coupling factor P1/P3 defines the range of applications for directional couplers. Based on the application, coupling factor could be any …
