Abstract :
A novel microstrip radial 1:19 power divider is proposed in this paper. The conventional impedance transformation method is used here with a single substrate to realize 1 to 19 power transmission. To verify our design, the power divider is fabricated and tested. It can be observed that it achieves 29.4% impedance bandwidth (VSWR<;2), the transmitted magnitude and phase imbalance for 19 outputs are ±0.1 dB and ±1 deg, respectively.
