Abstract
In this study, using a coplanar waveguide employing Periodic Strip Structure (PSS), highly miniaturized on-chip wilkinson power divider was realized on Si radio frequency integrated circuit (RFIC). The wilkinson power divider exhibited good RF performances from 25 to 50 GHz, and its size was $0.44{\times}0.1mm^2$, which is 4.8 % of conventional one. We also investigated the RF performances of various structures employing PSS.
