Abstract
In this paper, a broadband 4-way power divider which can be used from 20 MHz to 500 MHz in the V/UHF band is designed using transmission-line transformer and ferrite toroid. A 4:1 impedance transformer is realized and this 4:1 transformer is connected with bridge-type 2-way dividers to form a 4-way rower divider, Insertion loss of about 6.8dB, isolation of less than -20dB, and return loss of less than -15dB in most band of interest are measured.
