Implementation of an Enhanced Wilkinson’s Power Divider using Low Pass Filters

Abstract

A novel design of power divider using pi-filter is proposed in this paper which suppresses the harmonics in the circuit. There are several advantages of using this design. The simplicity of the circuit is enhanced as the open circuited shunt stubs are used in Pi-filter. 3 GHz is the frequency that is used throughout the process as the operating frequency. The target of this implementation is to get an equal power division through the proposed power divider. On simulating the proposed design on AWR Microwave office suite, it was observed that the harmonics were suppressed above 3 GHz. The substrate that is used here for the implementation have the following specifications: Loss tangent = 0, thickness of the substrate = 1.6 mm, dielectric constant = 2.2 and metal thickness = 0.05 mm.
