Abstract
In this paper, a high dividing ratio unequal power divider using parallel connection transmission line is presented. Because a very low impedance transmission line can't implement a microstrip technology, this can fabricate a parallel connection transmission line with high impedance. When we design a high dividing ratio divider, we need the very low impedance line. The parallel connection transmission line could be implemented to obtain a low impedance line characteristic. To validity this approach, we are implemented a 10:1 unequal divider at center frequency 1 GHz. The performances of power divider agree with simulation results.
