A method allowing for reduction of coupling coefficients required for realization of two-section asymmetrical coupled-line directional couplers has been proposed. It has been shown that by connecting uncoupled left-handed and right-handed transmission lines between two coupled-line sections one can obtain greater design flexibility of the resulting circuit, simultaneously with the coupling reduction in coupled-line sections. Moreover, the proposed circuit features the properties of two-section asymmetric directional couplers offering wide operational bandwidth. The theoretical analysis has been verified by measurements of a 3 dB directional coupler operating at the center frequency f0 = 1.5 GHz having coupling imbalance δC = ±0.4 dB and bandwidth 0.75–2.3 GHz.

In this paper, a design of a miniaturized branch-line directional coupler is presented. The coupler is designed with balanced coupled-line sections, which are electrically shortened by the application of lumped capacitors. To measure the parameters of the coupler, appropriate baluns have been designed. The coupler has been designed in a GaAs PH25 UMS (united monolithic semiconductor) technology with the center frequency of 24 GHz. The measured power split equals 3 dB with the transmission/coupling imbalance not exceeding 0.6 dB. The measured return losses equal 17 dB at the center frequency, whereas the isolation reaches 17 dB. The fabricated coupler‘s size equals 630 um × 487 um, which is 0.19 of the full size of the directional coupler in the chosen technology (1191 um × 1170 um).

A fiber ring is very commonly used to generate stimulated Brillouin scatterings(SBS), especially by using fiber ring resonator. In this paper we theoretically analyzed some parameters of our interest in a coupled fiber ring resonator. We firstly analyzed a directional coupler, determined the optical power distribution among the four ports of the coupler. Then theoretically analyzed the transmission function of a coupled fiber ring resonator, followed by the simulation of the analysis. The simulation results show that the smaller the coupling coefficient is, the better the cavity finesse and extinction ration are, the lower the SBS threshold is, which is of great importance when it comes to the generation of SBS.
