The second example shows how to split a series of resonators. In this type of structure,<br />

there is strong coupling at the gaps between adjacent resonators. The example<br />

on the left is good since the subdivision lines do not prevent this interresonator<br />

coupling. The example on the right is incorrect since the resulting subprojects<br />

do not contain the inter-resonator coupling.<br />

The third example shows a square spiral. The example on the left is a good placement<br />

since the location where the spiral is divided is essentially a group of coupled<br />

transmission lines and the subdivision line is perpendicular to those lines. Here,<br />

the left side of the spiral is sufficiently far from the right side so that coupling is<br />

negligible. The example on the right is bad because the lines on the left side of the<br />

spiral do couple strongly with the lines on the right side.<br />
