A Novel Multi-Channel Spatial Power Splitter

Abstract

A novel power splitter is presented in which power is spatially distributed within a waveguide using broadband low-loss transition array of E-plane integrated finlines. Two waveguide space power splitters are implemented: one is non-uniform power splitter based on the standard waveguide, the other is uniform power splitter based on the PBG (photonic bandgap) rectangular waveguide. The simulation results have showed the characteristic of these two power splitter.
