Abstract :
A Ka-band waveguide power splitting and combining system using equal-branch power splitter/combiner is proposed in this paper. This waveguide power splitter/combiner has the uniform main guide and all the branches in same size to minimize the difficulty and sensitivity in the mechanical fabrication. Full-wave simulation and in-door measurement are also carried to validate this design.
