Abstract :
The finite-difference time-domain method has been applied successfully for electrodynamic analysis of the four-channel strip power divider taking into account finite losses in the dielectric substrate and the presence of a metal box. A test sample of the power divider was designed and manufactured. Results of its theoretical and experimental investigations are in good agreement.
