Abstract
Microwave and millimeter-wave communication systems require couplers in different applications. The aim of this paper is to construct simple wave digital models of directional couplers with two or three parallel lines. The idea behind this aim is to be able to model a microstrip structure and to simulate it using Simulink platform which has already been used extensively by researchers. Advanced Design System (ADS) software and MATLAB/Simulink environment are used to design, implement and simulate the investigated microstrip circuits and their models. Validity and accuracy of the presented digital models are fully demonstrated through several benchmark problems.
