Abstract
The present invention discloses a miniature high directivity multi-band coupled-line coupler for RF power amplifier module application. The coupler utilizes a three-coupled-line structure, with a first RF line designated coupled line for the GSM 900 MHZ band, a second RF line designated coupled line for the DCS/PCS 1800/1900 MHZ band, and a common coupled line. A first capacitor is connected between the center of the first line and the center of the common line and a second capacitor is connected between the center of the second line and the center of the common line. The coupler has a length considerably less than the length of a quarter wave length coupler while achieving directivity requirements for both GSM band and DCS/PCS band.
