Abstract
A radio frequency device comprises: a substrate; a conductive circuit that is configured to transmit a signal and comprises a plurality of transmission line segments on the substrate; and a decoupling element on the substrate positioned between adjacent first and second transmission line segments, the decoupling element comprising a first arm adjacent to the first segment of transmission line, a second arm adjacent to the second segment of transmission line, and a connecting portion connecting the first and second arms. The decoupling element is configured to reduce coupling between the first and second transmission line segments.
