Abstract
Semi-empirical design equations for symmetrical three line microstrip couplers (TMC's) have been developed. The approach is based on dividin g the total capacitance of the system into various basic capacitances, which are then calculated empirically and semi-numerically. The numer ical results based on these design equations have been found in good a greement with the previously obtained results.
