A power divider with high‐power handling capability and enhanced selectivity performance

In this article, a new structure of power divider (PD) is presented. This design shows high‐power handling capability, enhanced selectivity performance, and simple structure. Theory analysis based on impedance matching method has been performed. The closed‐form design equations and detailed design procedure have been given and summarized at the same time. For verification purpose, a prototype with a center frequency of 2.5 GHz is simulated and fabricated, and the measurement results show a good agreement with the simulated ones.
