This letter presents miniaturized Gysel power dividers using lumped-element components. The characteristic impedances of all the equivalent transmission lines in these dividers are fixed to the same values based on even and odd mode analysis, thus simplifying the design procedure and miniaturizing the Gysel power dividers. The ideal divider designed at a frequency of 590MHz exhibits power split...

A four-way power divider/power combiner using substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) and microstrip lines is proposed and investigated. The proposed power divider consists of a double-layer substrate with a bottom layer including an SIW T-junction and a top layer including a microstrip network. This microstrip network consists of a modified Gysel power divider which provides a high isolation betw...

A novel Gysel power divider based on patch type structure is presented in this paper. The proposed power divider possesses broad bandwidth, small physical occupation and arbitrary power division. More than 30% bandwidth enhancement is achieved based on the −15 dB input return loss criteria, while 55% size reduction is realized compared with conventional Gysel power divider. What’s more, flat di...

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 freedo...

The design of compact wideband microwave reflectometers for the purpose of inclusion in a breast cancer detection system is presented. In this system, a wideband frequency source is used to synthesize a narrow pulse via the step-frequency synthesis method. The reflectometer undertakes measurements in the frequency domain and the collected data is transformed to the time/space domain using IFFT....

By increasing the impedance of microstrip combine port, a new Gysel power combiner/divider (PCD) with enhanced average power-handling capability (APHC) was proposed. This article shows simulated results traditional PCD and proposed at center frequency 2.4 GHz 10 GHz. For verification, one example operating designed, fabricated, measured. One also fabricated to compare APHC PCD, by means measuri...
