Abstract :
This paper presents a three-port power divider with a reconfigurable power ratio and dual-band performance. The proposed device consists of two dual-band composite right/left-handed transmission lines designed with a reconfigurable behaviour by means of micro electro-mechanical switches. This way a very compact and monolithic device has been obtained.
