Analysis and Design of Ultra-Wideband 3-Way Bagley Power Divider Using Tapered Lines Transformers

الملخص EN

An ultra-wideband (UWB) modified 3-way Bagley polygon power divider (BPD) that operates over a frequency range of 2–16 GHz is presented.

To achieve the UWB operation, the conventional quarter-wave transformers in the BPD are substituted by two tapered line transformers.

For verification purposes, the proposed divider is simulated, fabricated, and measured.

The agreement between the full-wave simulation results and the measurement ones validates the design procedure.
