Abstract :
The design of an UWB power divider with 1 to 4 ways in the planar format has been presented in this paper. In order to achieve an UWB performance, we connect two 1-to-2 power dividers to realize a 1-to-4 power-dividing function. The simulated results and measured ones have shown equal power split and fine isolation over the band 3.1GHz to over 11 GHz. This structure, of course, can be used in spatial power combing and antenna array feed networks.
