Abstract

A coupler comprises a first line and a second line in each case with two connectors. The lines run in spatial proximity and are coupled. A first connector of the first line and a first connector of the second line are disposed in spatial proximity. A second connector of the first line and a second connector of the second line are disposed in spatial proximity. A signal does not couple or couples only with a high attenuation from the first connector of the first line to the first connector of the second line. The signal is split, in particular, at the design frequency, into largely identical parts to the second connector of the first line and the second connector of the second line. The first line and the second line in this context are strip conductors.
