Abstract

A new type of miniature compact rat-race hybrid rings is reported. It has strong and continuous suppression of higher harmonics. The proposed hybrid ring, also, effectively reduces the occupied area to 16 % of the conventional case. All slots and narrow tapes are 0.2 mm or wider and easy for fabrication. The same method can be applied for lower frequencies, including UHF..
