Abstract

Abstract In this paper, a novel design method for quad-band Wilkinson power dividers is proposed. The design method is based on using a quad-band microstrip line. In comparison with other design methods, the proposed method has the advantages of simplicity and low insertion loss. To validate the proposed method, an equal quad-band power divider operating at four bands of 0.7, 1.2, 1.78, and 2.28 GHz was simulated and measured. Good agreement between measured results and simulated ones is obtained. The measured results show that the developed quad-band power divider features low insertion loss of less than 0.75 dB, isolation greater than 20.92 dB, and return loss better than 18 dB at four operating bands.
