A recombinant, in-phase power divider

摘要

A topology for a planar power divider suitable for realization using conventional microstrip fabrication techniques is described. This divider is capable of exciting an odd number of output ports with either equal or unequal power division. The recombinant approach produces bandwidth comparable to that of other techniques with fewer and more easily realized elements. Design equations and an example implementation are discussed. Measured data for an octave bandwidth, three-way power divider at 10 GHz are presented.
