Abstract :
A new dual-band operation scheme is proposed for the Wilkinson power divider. Each port of the divider is extended through a transmission line section to achieve dual-band operation over a wide range of band-ratios with enhanced bandwidth for small band-ratios. Exact formulas are presented in a simple form for the design and analysis of the divider with experimental verification.
