A novel coupled-line circuit configuration is proposed to design small-size dual-band Wilkinson power dividers. This proposed power divider consists of three sections of coupled lines and two isolation resistors. The analytical design theory is given and the electrical parameters analysis is provided. Six numerical examples are presented to demonstrate the flexible dual-band applications. To avoid a negative isolation resistor, a practical power divider operating at 1GHz and 2.2GHz with two positive-value resistors is designed. The calculated and full-wave simulated results verify our proposed idea. Keywords: Coupled-line, dual-band, power divider.

Background: A compact complex impedance-transforming balun for UHF frequencies, which is based on a coupled-line structure that matched all ports and provided high output port isolation, was designed in this paper. Methods: A lumped component transformation was used to minimize circuit size. The implemented circuit operated at 433 MHz with the reflection coefficients less than -16 dB at all ports, 0.22 dB amplitude balance and 180° phase balance at the output ports. The signal coupling between the output ports was -16.8 dB. The circuit size is small at 0.032λ. Results: Complex impedance-transforming baluns were designed to operate at 433 MHz. The source impedance at port 1 was set at Zs = 12 - j12Ω and the load impedances at port 2 and 3 were set at ZL = 80 + j30Ω. Conclusion: A compact complex impedance-transforming balun at UHF frequency, with all ports matched and high isolations, was designed and illustrated in this paper.
