Abstract

A metamaterial based compact microstrip T-junction power divider working at 10GHz is proposed. The metamaterial unit cell consists of microstrip gaps and via holes whose behavior is equivalent to the combination of series capacitors and shunt inductors respectively, that is, a dual transmission line (high-pass) configuration. By adjusting the parameters of these structures, the characteristics of the Metamaterial-medium can be set to achieve a desired phase shift. To validate the design, a T-junction power divider is fabricated and measured. A 70% reduction of the length of the impedance transformer, without significant performance degradation, has been achieved
