Coupling Factor C.

The Coupling factor of a directional coupler is the ratio of incident power to the forward power, measured in dB.

C=10log10Pi/Pf dB.

Directivity D
The Directivity of a directional coupler is the ratio of forwarding power to the back power, measured in dB.

D=10log10Pf/Pb dB.

Isolation
It defines the directive properties of a directional coupler. It is the ratio of incident power to the back power, measured in dB.

I=10log10Pi/Pb dB.

Isolation in dB = Coupling factor + Directivity.
