Patent attributes
A transmission-line network may include a transmission-line sub-network. The sub-network may include at least first and second transmission lines having respective first ends connected electrically in series relative to a first circuit node and respective second ends connected electrically in parallel relative to a second circuit node. A third transmission line may have a first end directly connected to the second circuit node and a second end electrically connected to the second end of the first transmission line. A fourth transmission line may have a first end directly connected to the second circuit node and a second end electrically connected to the second end of the second transmission line. The transmission-line network may further include an impedance assembly disposed relative to the third and fourth transmission lines configured to produce resistance between the second end of the third transmission line and the second end of the fourth transmission line.
