ABSTRACT:
A symmetrical or asymmetrical coupler includes first and second conductive lines formed as at least first and second coupled sections and a delay section between the first and second coupled sections. The coupler may include plural alternating delay sections and coupled sections. Delay sections may include delay loops formed in both lines. One line may be a mirror image of the other line.
