In this article, a novel six‐port modulator is proposed and experimentally verified.The six‐port modulator circuit is realized by using power dividers/combiners and polyphase networks for the first time. A prototype operating in 2.4‐GHz instruments, scientifice and measurement (ISM) band has been fabricated and experimentally verified, to show its performance as vector modulator. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
