| Abstract |
A 1:6 Unequal 2-way Wilkinson power divider is proposed. The required microstrip line with 207{Ω} characteristic impedance for 1:6 power divider is realized by adding defected ground structure (DGS) to the standard microstrip line. The adopted DGS has the rectangular geometry which results in the increased characteristic impedance. The rectangular-shaped DGS produces the transmission line having much higher characteristic impedance due to the increased equivalent inductance. The measured performances of the fabricated 1:6 power divider show the expected S-parameters with a good agreement with the predicted ones. |
