Abstract

A compact low insertion loss reconfigurable power divider using two varactor diodes is presented in this letter. Design methods along with analysis equations are provided. The reconfigurable responses are realized by tuning the controlling voltages of the two varactor diodes thereby resulting compact size and less loss. One diode is used to tune the return loss of the input port and the other diode is utilized to tune the return loss of the two output ports and the isolation between the two ports. The tuning frequency range is from 0.7GHz to 1.01GHz. A reconfigurable power divider is designed, fabricated and measured to validate the proposed methods. The power divider has the merits of compactness, low insertion loss, good isolation between two output ports, good return loss, and only two varactor diodes.
