Abstract
A modified Gysel power divider with arbitrary power dividing ratio is proposed in this letter. The power dividing ratio of the proposed circuit is determined by both the electrical lengths and characteristic impedances of transmission lines. The proposed circuit is analyzed based on transmission line theory, and design equations are derived. For verification, two prototypes operating at 2 GHz with power dividing ratios of 1:1 and 4:1 are designed, fabricated and measured, respectively. The measured results are in good agreements with the simulated ones.
