This paper describes the design guidelines for frequency independent 180° phase shifters. The proposed configuration is based on microstrip slot transition technique. The frequency independence feature is due to comparing two quasi‐identical structures and the phase inversion (180°) is related to the chosen inverted orientation of the main line compared to the reference one. Moreover, two different schemes are designed and manufactured and a good simulation to measurement agreement is demonstrated. Thus, interesting results are obtained (more than 10 dB return loss, less than 2.1 dB insertion loss and less than ± 3.6° phase deviation).
