A directional coupler finds numerous applications in sampling the incident and reflected wave in a microwave system with minimum degradation of performance of the transmission line. The typical applications include line monitoring, power measurements etc.
AMPL's Directional couplers are custom made and are designed to give optimum performance and cost effectiveness. AMPL directional couplers can be used for both low and high power applications and are available in narrow and octave frequency bands. AMPL directional couplers are compact and rugged in construction and light in weight. The techniques AMPL uses for manufacturing these directional couplers Results in rugged structures resulting in low insertion loss, high isolation and good directivity. Typical examples are given in table.
