In this paper, a size reduced elliptically bended hybrid ring coupler is proposed with better directivity, isolation factor, coupling factor, better impedance matching and undesired signal suppression for wideband applications. The proposed elliptically bended compact hybrid coupler is desired to operate at 1.8 GHz providing wide bandwidth, better return loss, and isolation with less insertion loss where a novel gradual impedance bending technique is implemented to suppress unwanted signals.
