Abstract
The article presents a compact multifunctional power divider loaded with short-ended stub for RF front end system at 2.5 GHz application. The proposed structure consists of PIN diodes and short-ended stub at the output transmission line. Wilkinson power divider and SPDT switch at 2.5 GHz can be achieved by changing the bias voltage of the integrated PIN diodes. As the proposed design transitions from a power divider to an SPDT switch, a short stub is introduced at the output ports to prevent mismatches from occurring. The proposed SPDT switch design has been mathematically analyzed and presented in detail. Two frequency component functions are combined in a small package with three RF connectors. This proposed design is constructed and characterized for experimental-demonstration purposes. The method proposed in this article is simpler compared to the previous work and easy to fabricate. This technique will reduce the overall size and manufacturing cost. It also can be applied to design the multifunctional power divider at any desired specifications and operating frequencies that compatible with RF/microwave applications, such as smart antennas and phase-array antennas.
