Abstract :
In this paper, a broadband 4-way power divider which can be used from 20 MHz to 500 MHz in the V/UHF band is designed using bridge configuration, transmission-line transformer and ferrite toroid. A 4:1 impedance transformer is realized and this transformer is connected to bridge-type 2-way dividers to form a 4-way power divider. This 4-way high-power divider has power tolerance up to 100 W. Insertion loss of about 6.8 dB, isolation less than -20 dB, and return loss less than -15 dB in most band of interest are measured.
