Abstract

A new printed Wilkinson balun based on the nonlinear phase characteristics of composite right/left handed (CRLH) structure is presented.The new device, which differs from the traditional CRLH balun, is composed of a Wilkinson power divider, a distributed CRLH transmission line (TL), and a conventional TL. It can be easily applied to MIC/MMIC circuits. Full‐wave simulations and measurement results verify the effectiveness of the new structure. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

## Abstract The broadband digital phase shifters are valuable for the modern phase array antennas. Under balanced condition, composite right/left‐handed transmission line (CRLH TL) is broadband because of its unique hyperbolic‐linear dispersion relations.

## Abstract An unbalanced composite right/left‐handed transmission line structure is used for the design of a novel dual‐frequency microstrip antenna operating at X band. It is shown that the antenna has a very similar performance in both the operating modes to that of a conventional microstrip pat
