Abstract :
Radial 1:6 microstrip divider is proposed. The divider is based on tapered horizontal and vertical strips and has a 50 ¿ SMA connector at the input port and 50 ¿ SMA connectors at the output ports. The divider was simulated and measured, showing a bandwidth of 33% for SWR = 2, low insertion loss and high accuracies of output amplitudes and phases. Very good agreement between simulation and measurement was achieved.
