The article is devoted to the design and configuration of a circular directional coupler with a small size for maritime communications equipment. In the course of the work, the model of the device and its characteristics were analyzed. It has been determined that a compact device has a significantly smaller area while having comparable characteristics. The process of miniaturization itself consisted in replacing traditional quarter-wave segments with their analogies implemented on a printed circuit board in the form of inductive and capacitive elements.
