✦ Synopsis

Abstract

This letter presents a broadband rat‐race coupler designed by using right‐handed artificial transmission lines (ATLs) combined with a composite right/left‐handed ATL; in order to limit spurious parasitic effects, by using metal–air–metal capacitor and short circuited stubs, both kinds of ATLs have been designed without lumped elements, leading to a very compact and monolithic device. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

## Abstract In this letter, we present a frequency tunable hybrid ring coupler based on the concepts of a synthetic left‐ and right‐handed transmission line.The proposed ring coupler makes use of lumped inductor‐capacitor (LC) elements to greatly reduce the circuit size; meanwhile, the frequency re
