본 논문에서는 공통의 결함접지면구조(Defected ground structure, DGS)를 이용한 1:2 비대칭 전력 분배기를 설계하였다. 기본적인 비대칭 전력분배기를 설계하고 DGS를 삽입하여 크기를 줄이고 반으로 접은 구조로 회로의 크기를 대폭 줄일 수 있는 구조 이다. 사용한 기판으로는 Rogers 5880 31mils(0.7874mm)를 사용하여 1GHz 주파수대의 1:2 비대칭 전력 분배기를 설계 및 제작하여 우수한 특성을 확인 할 수 있었다.

The broadband high power 3-way combiner was designed and fabricated for the digital TV repeater. To achieve increase of the bandwidth and the high power capability, Wilkinson type power divider was adopted in our research. First of all, Wilkinson type power divider of equal-split and unequal-split were combined, and the characteristics of the four port in-phase power combiner was simulated for each thickness of dielectric substrates. As the results of simulation, the power combiner fabricated by using dielectric substrate of 120 mil-thickness has the characteristics as follows: insertion loss of less than -651 dB, reflection coefficient of less than -13 dB, isolation among the output ports of less than -15 dB, and pose difference among the output ports of smiler than 13$^{\circ}$. Therefore, this power combiner was possible to improve the limit of microstrip line width due to high impedance, the problem of power loss due to interaction between strip lines in a high power combiner and narrow bandwidth simultaneously. Furthermore, making broadband and high power could be achieved since the fabricated 3-way combiner has good characteristics of insertion loss, the reflection coefficient, separation between ports, and phase difference.

In this paper, a new design method of asymmetrical configuration of main amplifier and peaking amplifier using changed bias point is proposed for excellent linearity, instead of the conventional Doherty structure. We have utilized the uneven wilkinson power divider for the unequal power drive at the input network of amplifiers. And we proposed a compensating method of the decreasing efficiency due to improving linearity using 3-stage Doherty structures. From the simulation results of asymmetrical Dohertry power amplifier and asymmetrical 3-stage Doherty power amplifier with uneven power drive are implemented. From the implementation and measurement results of the each amplifier, IMD characteristics have -55 dBc as the good efficiency of 13% compensates the decreased entire efficiency due to the improving linearity characteristics.

This paper presents the design of a dual band branch line hybrid coupler(BLHC) with different power division ratios at two bands. In the proposed design, transmission lines of the BLHC are transformed to $\pi$-type equivalent circuits which represent different impedances and $\lambda/4$ electrical length at two frequency bands. In order to verify the proposed method, a dual band coupler with different power division ratios is designed for 0.9 GHz and 2 GHz applications. The desired power division ratios are 1:1 and 1:3 at the two operating frequency bands. The measured results show excellent performance with an insertion loss of less than 0.33 dB, a return loss of less than -18.07 dB, and good isolation characteristics.
