New uniplanar balun
Abstract
It has been demonstrated that there is an equivalence between MIC baluns (microstrip-slotline transition) and MMIC uniplanar baluns (CPWQ-slotline transition), which can be used as a basis for the realization of the various uniplanar baluns. A new unipolar CPW-slotline double junction balun has been proposed as an example of such equivalence and as a better solution for MMIC baluns than others published so far.
