Author\´s reply [to "Comments on \´Miniaturized Wilkinson Power Dividers Utilizing Capacitive Loading\´"]

The authors note their appreciation for the comments of Dr. Staudinger [ibid., vol 12, no 4, pp 145, April, 2002] regarding errors in the original article [ibid., vol. 12, pp 6??8, Jan. 2002]. He is correct that C2 must equal C1/2 whereas in the paper C2 was expressed as being equal to 2C1. The equation given by Dr. Staudinger for C1 is also correct. Equation (2) of the paper is corrected and presented here and the heading for column 2 of Table I should be C2. The orignal authors have verified that the values listed in column 2 of Table I are correct with the change in heading, and the correct equations were used in the design of the miniaturized Wilkinson power dividers. Lastly the errors in typing the manuscript do not alter the results and discussions offered in the paper.
