Abstract :
A wideband substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) power divider with enhanced out-of-band rejection is proposed. Periodic butterfly radial slots are etched on top layer of SIW to realise a pass-band combining with high-pass characteristics of SIW. An experimental circuit has been fabricated by the standard printed circuit board process. Simulated results are compared with measured data and good agreement is reported.
