Abstract :
An X-band coplanar Wilkinson power divider based on GaAs MMIC technology is proposed. The power divider is designed at 10 GHz and simulated using HFSS, and simulated results show that it has reflection loss of less than -16.5 dB and insertion loss of less than -3.6 dB. Measured results show that the divider has reflection loss of less than -15.0 dB and insertion loss of less than -3.5 dB. Experimental results agree well with simulated results.
