Abstract

In this article, a new way is proposed to compact the transmission lines of microstrip devices such as branch‐line couplers (BLCs).In this way, two unequal‐length high‐impedance (thin) transmission lines paralleling with each other are used instead of a single transmission line. The shorter and greater lines can be implemented in a right and meander forms, respectively. The usefulness of the proposed way was verified by designing, simulation, and fabrication of a compacted BLC at frequency 2 GHz. An area compactness of about 64.2% is achieved.

## Abstract The concept of double‐Lorentz (DL) transmission lines (TL) provides two additional degrees of freedom in realizing triband microwave devices. The triband operation is accomplished by the flexible phase slope characteristic of the DL TL with the frequency. In this article, the theory, de
