A Planar Cross-Junction Power Divider for the Center Feed in Single-Layer Slotted Waveguide Arrays
Summary :
The authors propose a novel 3-way power divider named a planar cross-junction, which is used as the center feed for single-layer slotted waveguide arrays. A feeding waveguide consisting of a cascade connection of these dividers is placed at the middle of radiating waveguide in a single layer. The length of radiating waveguides is halved; the long line effect in traveling wave operation is halved and bandwidth is widened. One divider as a unit is designed by Galerkin's method of moments to suppress the reflection and to control the amplitude and the phase of the divided power into two radiating waveguides on both sides of a feed one. Two types of the cross-junction with a different divided power ratio are designed and tested by experiments in 4 GHz band. The mutual coupling effects between two adjacent cross-junctions as cascaded in a feeding waveguide of the array are predicted to be small enough; units designed here are directly applicable for a multiple-way power divider.
