A new UHF 40 kW 3dB hybrid coupler owes its design to extensive computer simulation completed before the manufacture of prototypes.
Delta Meccanica referred to the coupler as ‘single section, multi lines’ because the inner conductors are four interlaced lines in a crossed configuration. The company said it was a unique, compact design that is less expensive than similar products.
Delta claimed that this new hybrid coupler configuration has reached impressive RF performances, such as a VSWR better than 1.1 and an isolation better than 30 dB, across the entire UHF band.
