In this paper, a class of balanced wideband phase shifters with good filtering property and common-mode (CM) suppression is proposed, synthetically designed, and implemented. Unlike the conventional coupled-line reference branch one, the proposed balanced phase shifter has its T-shaped structure in both of main and reference branches, so as to achieve superior passband selectivity and CM rejection simultaneously. The synthesis method is then presented to design the proposed balanced wideband phase shifters with the prescribed phase shift value, passband ripple, maximum phase deviation, and fabricated bandwidth. The 30°, 45°, 60°, 75°, and 90° balanced phase shifters are theoretically designed and demonstrated. To validate the design method, two prototypes with different fractional bandwidths (FBWs) and phase shift values (Case 1: FBW = 66.7%, typical phase shift value is 30°; Case 2: FBW = 55.6%, typical phase shift value is 90°) are designed, fabricated, and measured. The synthesized, simulated, and measured results are found in good agreement with each other.
