A waveguide analogue of this coupled lines approach is the Bethe-hole directional coupler in which two parallel waveguides are stacked on top of each other and a hole provided for coupling.
32.
These problems could be overcome with the use of a directional coupler, but as explained in the previous section, a wideband design requires a filter design for directional couplers as well.
33.
For this reason stripline parallel coupled lines are used in directional couplers with a coupling factor no more than but power splitters ( coupling factor ) use a direct coupling technique.
34.
These problems could be overcome with the use of a directional coupler, but as explained in the previous section, a wideband design requires a filter design for directional couplers as well.
35.
At microwave frequencies, passive circuits such as filters, power dividers and directional couplers tend to be constructed as distributed element circuits in the same format as is used for the connecting transmission lines.
36.
The rx signal passes through the VHF directional coupler / power detector ( not used in rx ) to a lo-pass filter and then passes by 2 PIN diodes ( both HSU277 ).
37.
After receiving security clearance in December 1941, Bethe joined the MIT Radiation Laboratory, where he invented the Bethe-hole directional coupler, which is used in microwave waveguides such as those used in radar sets.
38.
Though, the losses are high for such slot structures, this scheme exploiting the asymmetric slots may have potential to design very compact optical directional couplers and polarization beam splitters for on-chip integrated optical devices.
39.
A " 70cm signal path " goes through a high pass filter network, through the RF directional coupler / power detector ( not on rx ) to a low pass filter to a PIN-diode.

Isolation of a directional coupler can be defined as the difference in signal levels in dB between the input port and the isolated port when the two other ports are terminated by matched loads, or:
