Abstract
The authors present a new compact coplanar interferometer for application in an IFM system with 4 bits that operates in a frequency band from 5 to 6 GHz. This interferometer consists of a couple of coplanar two-way Wilkinson power dividers connected to two CPS lines with different signal delays. This interferometer presents smaller dimensions when compared to other designs. Details of this compact coplanar interferometer are provided along with a comparison between theoretical, simulated and measured results.
