Abstract
We have proposed a novel asymmetric X-junction called the truncated-structu ral X-branch (TSXB), which quadruples the full-branching angle (0.3-1.2 deg rees) compared to a conventional junction at -17 dB crosstalk and 75% power transmission to the "straight" port. (C) 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
