ABSTRACT:
A lumped element directional coupler tap is disclosed especially adapted for a system providing bi-directional communications. The directional coupler tap includes three resistors and a balun. A radio frequency signal may be tapped off of a main transmission line to feed a plurality of branch lines as in a cable television system. The coupler exhibits a high degree of isolation between tap and load ports, and good performance over an usually broad frequency range.
