Abstract
The authors propose a wide-angle low loss Y-branch design, called expanded truncated structural Y-branch (ETSY). This design has the advantage of simplicity and ease of fabrication. A transmission ratio of nearly 0.8 is achievable for a full-branching angle of 10°, and the superiority of the ETSY design is demonstrated experimentally.Keywords
