Abstract
This paper presents a high dividing ratio unequal dualband divider using coplanar waveguide (CPW) and shunt connected open stub transmission lines. In order to implement transmission lines for a dualband divider using design equations, the low impedance lines of divider can be realized a shunt connected open stub transmission line. Also, the high impedance lines are realized by CPW transmission lines. To certify the validity of an unequal dualband divider using CPW and shunt connected open stub transmission lines, the 10:1 unequal dualband divider is implemented at operating frequency of 1 and 2 GHz. Good experimental performance at each frequency are obtained, which are in good agreement with the simulated results.
