Abstract :
A four-way travelling-wave power divider/combiner was designed and implemented by using lumped LC π-networks. For application around the upper VHF and the lower UHF bands, microstrip line is not suitable as the physical quarter-wave length is too long. Therefore, the authors introduce another implementation method using lumped elements
