Abstract

The invention discloses a miniaturization coupler capable of adjusting coupling coefficients and belongs to the field of radio frequency couplers. The coupler comprises an upper layer micro belt structure, a middle layer medium base plate and lower layer grounding metal. The upper layer micro belt structure, the middle layer medium base plate and the lower layer grounding metal are up-down successively arranged. The upper layer micro belt structure comprises two mutually parallel first transmission lines and two mutually parallel second transmission lines and is symmetrical with respect to themiddle line of the two first transmission lines. The second transmission lines are arranged on two sides of the middle line of the first transmission lines. Two ends of each second transmission lineare vertically connected with the first transmission lines. Middle points of the second transmission lines are connected with one end of an adjustable electrical susceptance structure through isolation capacitors. According to the invention, the coupler is capable of adjusting coupling coefficients through the adjustable electrical susceptance structure, and by use of serially connected inductors,equivalent micro belt lines are formed, so the electrical length of the micro belt lines is reduced and the effect of achieving miniaturization is achieved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of radio frequency couplers, in particular to a miniaturized coupler with adjustable coupling coefficient. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of wireless communication technology, various communication services require radio frequency systems to work in different frequency bands and different modes. Especially in communication systems such as radar and electronic countermeasures, a reconfigurable RF front-end is required to meet the requirements of various modes of communication systems. The tunable coupler is one of the key components of the tunable RF front-end, which can be applied in the power detection of the circuit and the reconfigurability of the antenna array pattern. Many scholars have studied and designed frequency-tunable couplers of different structures, such as literature 1 (C.S.Kim, J.S.Park, D.Ahn, and J.B.Lim, "Variable directionalcoupler with LC resonator," Electron.Lett., Vol....
