-In this work we propose the utilization of the Butler matrix as a six-port I/Q demodulator. The inherent symmetry of its topology allows to overcome the intrinsic amplitude and phase imbalances of the traditional approaches making it more suitable for the design of high performance six-port networks. To demonstrate the validity of the proposal a Butler matrix has been designed covering the complete UWB band and its results are compared with the traditional approaches.Index Terms -ultra-wideband (UWB), six-port I/Q demodulator, six-port receiver, Butler matrix, phase shifter, quadrature hybrid, power divider, slot-coupled lines.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
