What Does a Mismatched Coupled Port Actually Affect in a Directional Coupler?
Jul , 23 2025
Directional couplers are widely used in RF systems for signal sampling, power monitoring, VSWR detection, and PIM testing. While these components are passive by nature, their performance is highly dependent on how each port is terminated—especially the coupled port. In real-world applications, improper termination of the coupled port—either by leaving it open, using poorly matched devices, or low-...
