A tunable CMOS Wilkinson power divider using active inductors

This paper presents the design and implementation of a tunable CMOS Wilkinson power divider using active inductors. Compared to a conventional active inductor topology, the proposed active inductor features higher inductance tuning range, higher self-resonant frequency, and lower power consumption by introducing two additional transistors. Benefitting from the superior inductor, the low-loss Wilkinson power divider is practical while maintaining a wide tuning range. The design consuming 10.2 mW demonstrates an insertion loss of 0.67 dB, a return loss of 27 dB, and an isolation of 22.6 dB at 8 GHz. Moreover, the tuning range of the circuit is between 5.8 GHz and 10.4 GHz, rendering a 4.6 GHz bandwidth. The active chip size of the lumped design is merely 0.25 mm × 0.15 mm.

A miniaturized dual band Wilkinson power divider using capacitor loaded transmission lines

A miniaturized dual band Wilkinson power divider (WPD) with an ultra wideband harmonic suppression is proposed, in this paper. Capacitor loaded transmission lines (CLTL) are used in the proposed circuit. The proposed WPD has a significant size reduction more than 80% compared to a primary power divider. In the design procedure, values of the impedances and electrical length for all of the applied transmission lines and also applied lumped capacitors are analytically obtained. Results of fabricated power divider have a good agreement with simulated and show that, the insertion loss at two operating frequencies of 0.9 and 1.8 GHz are less than 0.1 dB and also a wide range of unwanted harmonics (3.1–10.6 GHz) has been achieved.     

A 4.1 unequal Wilkinson power divider

This letter presents the design and measured performances of a microstrip 4:1 unequal Wilkinson power divider. The divider is designed using the conventional Wilkinson topology with the defected ground structure (DGS). The DGS on the ground plane provides an additional effective inductive component to the microstrip line. This enables the microstrip line to be realized with very high impedance of over 150 Ω. By employing the DGS to the unequal Wilkinson topology, 4:1 power dividing ratio can be obtained easily without any problem in realization, while it has been impractical to fabricate a 4:1 divider using the conventional microstrip line because of very thin conductor width and extremely low aspect ratio (W/H). As an example, a 4:1 divider has been designed and measured at 1.5 GHz in order to show the validity of the proposed DGS and unequal divider. The measured performances of the 4:1 unequal power divider well agree with the exactly same dividing ratio as that expected

Fully integrated unequal Wilkinson power divider with EBG CPW

In this paper, a CPW with electromagnetic bandgap (EBG CPW) is newly proposed for designing a transmission line with high impedance. After designing, fabricating, and evaluating the characteristic impedance of the proposed EBG CPW transmission line, it will be applied to an integrated unequal Wilkinson power divider. In the EM simulation, the EBG-CPW transmission line with 10 /spl mu/m in line width has the same characteristic impedance as a CPW with a line width of 2.5 /spl mu/m. The insertion and return losses of the fabricated power divider with a power ratio of 1 to 3 are less than -0.7 dB and -15 dB, respectively. It also has excellent isolation characteristics with more than -20 dB. The experimental results are good agreement with the simulation.

Modified Wilkinson power divider for nth harmonic suppression

This paper presents a structure of the Wilkinson power divider that can suppress the nth harmonic output. The power divider consists of two /spl lambda//4n open stubs, which are located at the center of /spl lambda//4 branches and a parallel connection of a resistor and an inductor, which shunts the output ports. Experimental results show that this power divider suppresses the third harmonic component to less than -40 dB, while maintaining the characteristics of a conventional Wilkinson power divider; featuring an equal power split, a simultaneous impedance matching at all ports and a good isolation between output ports. These results agree quite well with the simulation results.
