“…A number of authors have improved designing BPDs by replacing microstrip lines with waveguides, 18,19 substrate integrated waveguide, 5,20,21 and coplanar waveguide 22 . Some authors have also found that BPDs can be used for unequal output power splitting where, several techniques were reported in the literature to address this issue for 3‐way BPD and 5‐way BPD 23‐27 …”
An exact design for seven-way Bagley power divider (7-way BPD) is introduced. The objective of this article is to derive general closed-form expressions for the impedances between adjacent ports for unequal-split 7-way BPD. The values of the impedances control the output power ratio. Full derivation of S-parameters followed by exact impedance equations will be presented. A parametric study in addition to several examples will be given to validate the proposed derivation
