Design of Wilkinson Power Divider

Abstract

Here, proposes single sided Wilkinson power divider with three transmission line feed. One feed uses as an input port and other two uses as an output port. Here also analyzed that there will be no coupling error between two output ports. The power divider presents in this project with high return loss and VSWR in between 2:1 range. This work achieves good result when port 1 acts as an active port, and other two ports act as a parasitic element. At the above mentioned, condition achieved a resonant frequency of about 5.23 GHz with − 17.69 dB return loss. For the above frequency also achieved a − 10 dB bandwidth of about 5.90 GHz which shows is an ultrawide bandwidth. Also get the gain of about − 6 dBi with 170.142° bandwidth (− 3dB HPBW). Also the main achievement is to get increased frequency ratio (IFR), so that the power divider gives no inter symbol interference (ISI). This Wilkinson power divider is specially designed for C band microwave frequency region and also applicable for terrestrial broadband and military telemetry applications. Finally, the proposed power divider is operating for multi-frequency operation.
