PERFORMANCE COMPARISON OF SIMULATED AND FABRICATED WIDEBAND MINIATURIZED WPD

ABHISHEK LAKSHKAR

Abstract


In this paper comparison of result of simulation and fabricated miniaturized Wilkinson Power Divider is proposed. The decay in performance of Wilkinson Power Divider during fabrication process is discussed in detail. Equal splitter Wilkinson Power Divider is designed by using CST MWS software which is very excellent as comparison to other RF design software in present scenario. The fabrication process is adopted by using PCB technology due to ease of use in laboratory. The FR4 LOSSY substrate is used for design and fabricate due to ease of availability in market and laboratory. Single layer technique is adopted for wide band of WPD which is very effective technique. It works in wide band frequency range i.e. 0-3 GHz. The size of the miniaturized Wilkinson Power Divider is 31mm×12mm×0.9mm (length ×breadth ×height). The decay of performance was analyzed i.e. return loss, insertion loss, isolation resulting parameters during simulation and fabrication comparison discussed over here.
