Novel bandpass‐response power divider with high frequency selectivity using centrally stub‐lOaded resonators

This article presents a novel bandpass-response power divider with high frequency selectivity. The centrally stub-loaded resonators are applied to this power divider in order to provide bandpass-filtering frequency response. In addition, the presented power divider has three transmission zeros, which can be used to improve the frequency selectivity. The measured results demonstrate the good performance of the fabricated bandpass-response power divider with high selectivity. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
