Abstract: ABSTRACT A five-port power divider with single-ended input and two differential-ended outputs is proposed. The frequency ranges from 9 to 11 GHz with a central frequency of 10 GHz. A stepped impedance line with open stubs is used between differential pairs for broadening the bandwidth and miniaturization of the divider. The divider is fabricated and the measurement results comply with the simulation. A proper performance for differential mode signal is achieved. The insertion loss is within 1.8 dB, the isolation is more than 15 dB, and the return loss is more than 11 dB. In addition, the common mode suppression is reached as well. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Microwave Opt Technol Lett 55:2669-2673, 2015 [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
