Abstract :
This paper describes a new hybrid wideband architecture of a two-stage Wilkinson power combiner/divider using additional capacitive and inductive elements in both stages. The combiner/divider shows a bandwidth from 0.3 GHz up to 2.8 GHz with an insertion loss of less than 0.2 dB and an isolation of about 10 dB. The new combiner topology, design process and results are being discussed
