Abstract :
This letter presents, for the first time, a novel design of unequal power divider with dual-harmonic rejection. Explicit closed-form design formulas are made available for circuit parameter extraction. The proposed circuit features simple construction and wide spurious suppression bandwidth. For demonstration, the simulated and experimental results of a 1 GHz, 2:1 power divider implemented on microstrip are given.
