AbstractIn this paper, two single- and dual-band equal power dividers (PDs) integrated filtering responses are proposed using quarter-wavelength stepped-impedance resonators (SIRs). By appropriately adjusting the impedances and electric length ratios of SIRs, the proposed structures can achieve compact sizes and wide stop-band performances. In addition, source-load coupling is applied to create a pair of transmission zeros at each side of the pass-bands, which can improve effectively the frequency selectivity and the out-of-band rejection. To validate the design theory, two single- and dual-band PDs with good filtering responses are designed, implemented and measured, respectively. The predicted results on S parameters are compared with the measured ones and good agreement is achieved.

A novel coupled-line circuit configuration is proposed to design small-size dual-band Wilkinson power dividers. This proposed power divider consists of three sections of coupled lines and two isolation resistors. The analytical design theory is given and the electrical parameters analysis is provided. Six numerical examples are presented to demonstrate the flexible dual-band applications. To avoid a negative isolation resistor, a practical power divider operating at 1GHz and 2.2GHz with two positive-value resistors is designed. The calculated and full-wave simulated results verify our proposed idea. Keywords: Coupled-line, dual-band, power divider.

This paper presents the bandwidth improvement for dual-band power divider using complex isolation network while maintaining physical port separation. The conventional port-extended power dividers suffered from narrow system bandwidth. A rigorous analysis revealed that such problem was mainly due to the limited impedance bandwidth caused by the odd-mode bisected network. Moreover, the isolation bandwidth provided by the parallel L-C topology in the conventional approach was also limited. To overcome such technical issues, a serial L-C topology was proposed. Derivations of the impedance bandwidth through even- and odd-mode network analysis have been performed and optimal system bandwidth could be achieved when the reflection coefficients of the corresponding bisected networks exhibited minimum frequency dependence. Based on the theoretical analysis, simultaneous achievement of bandwidth broadening, size compactness, and physical port extension at both frequencies is possible with optimum combinations of the design parameters. The experimental results evidenced that other than the improvement in system bandwidth, the fabricated prototype featured low extra insertion loss, good isolation across the bands, and compactness in size while maintaining physical separation between the split ports compared with previously published works.

A novel coupled-line structure is proposed to design dual-band and high-power Gysel power dividers with inherent impedance-transforming functions. Based on traditional even- and odd-mode technique, the analytical design methods in closed-form formula are obtained and the accurate electrical parameters analysis is presented. Due to the usage of coupled-line sections, more design-parameter freedom and a wider frequency-ratio operation range for this kind of dual-band Gysel powder divider are obtained. Several numerical examples are designed and calculated to demonstrate flexible dual-band applications with different impedance-transforming functions. A practical microstrip power divider operating at 2 GHz and 3.2 GHz is designed, fabricated, and measured. The good agreement between the calculated and measured results verifies our proposed circuit structure and analytical design approach.
