Design of a Patch Power Divider with Simple Structure and Ultra-Broadband Harmonics Suppression

Abstract

This paper introduces a simple H-shaped patch Wilkinson power divider (WPD), which provides ultra wide harmonics suppression band. The presented WPD designed at 1.8 GHz, and exhibits good performance at the operating bandwidth. In the proposed divider structure, two simple patch low-pass filters (LPFs) are employed at each branch, and three open ended stubs are added at each port. The proposed divider, implemented using the aforementioned structures has a good performance at both higher frequencies, and the operating frequency. In particular, the designed divider provides an ultra wide suppression band from 3 GHz to 20 GHz, which encompasses the 2nd up to the 11th harmonic. The proposed WPD has an operating band from 1.62 GHz to 2.1 GHz, with the operating bandwidth exceeding 480 MHz. Consequently, the fractional bandwidth (FBW) of 25.8 percent is obtained. The results indicate |S11|, |S12|, |S22|, and |S23|, are equal to –17 dB, –3.5 dB, –20 dB, and –17 dB, respectively, at the operating frequency. The simulation results are corroborated through the measurements of the fabricated divider prototype. The superior harmonic suppression capability is also demonstrated through comparisons with state-of-the-art divider circuits from the literature.
