Abstrakt: This paper presented a designed coupler by using Rogers RO4003C with thickness (h) 0.508 mm and relative permittivity (εr) 3.55. The four port network coupler operates in K-band (18-27 GHz) and design by using substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) method. The reflection coefficient and isolation coefficient of propose Substrate Integrated Waveguide (SIW) coupler is below than -10 dB. Meanwhile the coupler requirements are phase shift 90° between coupled port and output. SIW are high performance broadband interconnects with excellent immunity to electromagnetic interference and suitable for use in microwave and communication electronics, as well as increase bandwidth systems. The designs of coupler are investigated using CST Microwave Studio simulation tool. This proposed couplers are varied from parameters that cover the frequency range (21 -24 GHz) and better performance of scattering (S-parameter). [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
