Abstract
This paper proposes an improved 1 to 4 power divider based on oversized-coaxial and radial waveguide. To widen the bandwidth of the divider/combiner, an axially symmetric oversized coaxial waveguide is used to transform input to the radial waveguide, and at the bottom of the radial waveguide, stepped-impedance technology is used to realize the impedance match. According to EM simulations, the simulated −20dB return loss bandwidth is approximately 44.25% (ranging from 22 to 34.5GHz), and good amplitude imbalance and phase imbalance are observed in the band. This structure has properties of not only a wide band, low insertion loss and high output power, but also a small size, a high power combining efficiency and efficient heat sinking, and has potential for broadband high power combination.
