Abstract :
A novel type of asymmetric power divider is described that utilizes lumped elements to reduce circuit size and realize high impedance levels not possible in microstrip. A novel method is also presented to realize asymmetric splitters with a reduced number of transformers. Measured data for a 2 to 6 GHz two-way asymmetrical divider are presented.<>
