Abstract:

The patent concerns a wide band series-connected equal amplitude antiphase power divider for use in connecting an unbalanced input line to two output lines having equal impedance, i.e., to balanced outputs. The input line terminates in a solid cylinder and shielded balanced outputs have a common center conductor with a gap separating the outer conductor into two portions. Power division is accomplished by coupling an electric field across the small gap formed in the outer conductors.
