Abstrakt: In this paper, compact Ultra-Wide Band (UWB) 1:2:1 unequal split modified Bagley Power Divider (BPD) using Non-Uniform Transmission Lines (NTLs) theory is designed and tested. Based on this theory, 42.44% and 31.1% size reductions are obtained in the lower and upper λ/4 Uniform Transmission Lines (UTLs) in the first and second sections of the proposed divider. To evaluate the effect of the divider's compactness on its performance, it is compared with UWB 1:2:1 unequal split BPD using Tapered Transmission Lines (TTLs). Both dividers show good results where the measured return loss is appeared to be S11 < −10.6 dB and < −13.4 dB for NTL and TTL BPDs, respectively. However, the insertion losses S12 = S14 and S13 are around −6 ± 1.5 dB and – 3 ± 1.3 dB, respectively for both dividers. In this study, simulations are carried out using High-Frequency Structure Simulator (HFSS) software. The evaluation of the proposed divider is obtained from the simulation and hardware measurements results. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
