A coupled-line circuit structure is proposed in this paper to design a modified Schiffman phase shifter with short reference line. Based on the traditional transmission line theory and ABCD parameters, closed-form mathematical equations for electrical and scattering parameters are obtained. Obviously, this proposed coupled-line phase shifter has several advantages such as arbitrary phase difference, easy implementation, and analytical design method. Finally, two examples of microstrip coupled-line phase shifter, which have fractional bandwidth over 45%, are fabricated and measured. Good agreements between the simulated and measured results verify our design.
