Patent attributes
A directional coupler has a first port, a second port, a third port, and a fourth port. A first inductor has a first connection to the first port and a second connection to the second port. A second inductor has a first connection to the third port and a second connection to the fourth port. A first compensation capacitor is connected to the first port and the third port. A second compensation capacitor is connected to the first port and the fourth port. The first inductor is inductively coupled to the second inductor by a predefined coupling factor, the third port is isolated from the first port by a predefined first isolation factor, and the fourth port is isolated from the first port by a predefined second isolation factor. An inductance of the second inductor is substantially greater than an inductance of the first inductor.
