32. Directional Coupler (D/C) From this S matrix –Power coupled to port 4 is 90 o out of phase relative to power at port 2. (Same for power coupled to 3 compared to 1 for power in reverse direction. –Lines 1&2 and 3&4 are identical and any can be used as primary line while others serve as secondary –D/C with c 2 small(<<1): widely used for power moni- toring in forward and reverse directions. Reflections from imperfectly matched load or antenna. –D/C with c 2 significant fraction of unity used as power dividers
