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.

본 논문에서는 주변에서 쉽게 구할 수 있는 재료를 이용해 만든 인덕터와 커패시터를 사용해 윌킨슨 전력 분배기를 설계/제작하였다. 일반적으로 전력 분배기는 $\lambda/4$ 전송선로를 이용하기 때문에 인덕터와 커패시터를 사용할 수 있도록 전송선로를 집중소자로 변환해야 한다. 전송선로를 집중소자로 변환하기 위해 한 개의 직렬 인덕터와 두 개의 병렬 커패시터로 등가화하였다. 인덕터는 솔레노이드 형태로 선의 굵기와 솔레노이드의 반지름, 감은수에 변화를 주며 제작하였고, 커패시터는 평행판 커패시터 형태로 넓이에 변화를 주어 제작하였다. 구현된 전력 분배기는 설계 주파수에서 각각의 출력 포트에 -3.30dB, -3.31dB로 전력이 균등분배 되는 특성을 보였고, 반사손실은 -42.36dB, 출력 포트 간의 격리도는 -31.54dB로 설계 조건을 만족하였다.

In this paper, a broadband 2-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 2:1 impedance transformer instead of the conventional 4:1 impedance transformer is realized and this 2:1 transformer is connected with the conventional bridge-type 2-way divider to form a 2-way power divider. Insertion loss of about 3.5 dB, isolation of less than -10 dB, and return loss of less than -10 dB in most band of interest are measured.

This paper presents the design and measured performances of an unequal dual-band power divider using lumped elements. After the divider is designed using the conventional single band Wilkinson topology with lumped elements, we obtained the dual band characteristics with filter conversion method. This design method has the features of compact size and easy fabrication, because the high impedance transmission line realizes the lumped elements of equivalent circuit. As an example, an 2:1 divider has been designed and measured at 880 MHz and 1650 MHz in order to show the validity of the proposed unequal divider. The measured performances of the unequal power divider agree with the simulation results.

In this paper, the synthesis of distributed impedance transformers is presented that is essential for power divider design, whereby a broadband power divider is designed. Transfer functions of distributed transformers are synthesized with Chebyshev approximation, and their element values are calculated for various minimum insertion losses(MIL) and ripples. Desired performance of transformers is obtained by optimizing MIL's and ripples of a transfer function. As an application example, a four-way power divider is designed that operates over 2 to 8GHz frequency range. Experimental results are shown to approach the design performance, so transformer design by distributed network synthesis proves to be useful to power divider design.

This article presents an ultra broadband resistive power divider circuit for smart grid applications. Since the future smart grid system is expected to deploy high speed power line communication, the frequency response of the resitive power divider circuit is naturally of significance. Employing a thin film technology, the resistive power divider was designed, measured, and fabricated. For the circuit design, the conductor-backed coplanar waveguide line was firstly designed and measured. The 3 dB cutoff frequency was 72 GHz and S11 remains <-20 dB upto 70 GHz. The fabricated resistive power divider shows the 3 dB cutoff frequency of 50 GHz. It was experimentally verified that the resistive power divider circuit shows the insertion loss of 6 dB for high-speed input signal (40 Gb/s).

This paper suggested a theoretical approach and an implementation for the design of an unequal Wilkinson power divider with a high dividing ratio operating at two-frequencies. The T-section transmission lines and the two-section of Monzon's theory are proposed to operate a dual-band application. To achieve the high dividing ratio divider, the high impedance line using a T-shaped structure and low impedance lines with periodic shunt open stubs are implemented. For the validation of this divider, a dual-band power divider with a high dividing ratio of 5 is simulated and measured at 1 GHz and 2 GHz. The measured performances of the divider are in good agreements with simulation results.

The 6-port phase correlator consists of one in-phase power divider and three 3-dB 90-degree phase difference power dividers, and is mainly used in a demodulation circuit that determines the phase of an input signal. This paper proposes the wideband 6-port phase correlator that consists of an in-phase power divider using a wideband 2:1 impedance transformer with three 37.5-Ω coaxial cables, and a 3-dB 90-degree phase difference power divide using Wireline. The proposed wideband phase correlator fabricated at a center frequency of 1000MHz has the value of the input reflection coefficient(S₁₁ and S₂₂) -14dB or less in the frequency range of 640~1270MHz. Also, the signal transmission characteristic(S_i1), from the in-phase power divider input port to four output ports, has the amplitude of -6.5±0.6dB and the phase error of within ±3.4°, and the signal transmission characteristic(S_i2), from the 90 degree phase difference power divider input port to four output ports, has the amplitude of -6.1±0.6dB and the phase error of within ±6.2°.
