An etched ground GCPW 7:1 unequal Wilkinson power divider

摘要

This paper presents the results of a 7:1 unequal Wilkinson power divider fabricated using conductor backed or grounded coplanar waveguide (GCPW) with a novel ‘etched’ coplanar waveguide (CPW) to achieve the high impedance sections. Simulated and measured results agree very well in terms of insertion loss, return loss, and isolation.
