This letter proposed a new Wilkinson power combiner/divider (PCD) with enhanced average power-handling capability (APHC) by decreasing the impedance of microstrip combine port. For verification, one example PCD operating at 2.3GHz was designed, fabricated and measured to verify theory. One traditional also compare APHC PCD, means measuring temperature variation line same input power. The measur...

Received Jan 5, 2018 Revised Mar 3, 2018 Accepted Mar 20, 2018 This paper proposed three modified Wilkinson power dividers in order to achieve a size reduction and a wide bandwidth. The first structure presented the power divider using compact folded step impedance transmission lines rather than the uniform microstrip line design for operating center frequency of 3 GHz. The second structure sho...

This paper presents an approach to the design of a novel dual-band power divider with variable power dividing ratio. To achieve dual-band operation, a novel dual-band quarter-wave length transformer based on coupled-lines is proposed, which is used to replace the quarter-wave length transformer in Wilkinson power divider. The proposed dual-band power divider features a simple compact planar str...
