The phases of the inputs to each power combiner are arranged such that the two inputs are 90Â° out of phase with each other. Since the coupled port of a hybrid combiner is 90Â° out of phase with the transmitted port, this causes the powers to add at the output of the combiner and to cancel at the isolated port: a representative example from figure 21 is shown in figure 22.
