Abstract :
A four frequency broadband branching network has been designed for transferring microwave (4 and 6 GHz) and millimeter-wave (20 and 30 GHz) band signals between an antenna and transmitter-receivers in a satellite communication earth station. Measurements show that its insertion loss, VSWR and axial ratio are less than 1.2 dB, 1.2 and 2.1 dB, respectively.
