Abstract

En 中文
This paper presents, for the first time, the design and realization of absorptive balanced filtering power dividers (BFPD) featuring customizable transmission zeros. By replacing the conventional lambda/4 transmission line with a novel low-pass filtering unit (LPFU), precise control over the transmission zero frequency is achieved. Meanwhile, the power-dividing ratio of the proposed BFPDs is governed by the admittance ratio of the LPFU, leading to excellent amplitude balance bandwidth characteristics. A novel absorptive network is further introduced and integrated into the balanced ports, enabling effective differential-mode (DM) signal transmission, cross-mode conversion suppression, and common-mode (CM) noise absorption in all states. To validate the proposed design, two 2-GHz absorptive BFPDs were designed and measured, with each one featuring transmission zeros at 3.0 GHz and 4.0 GHz, respectively. The measured 15-dB DM matching, isolation, and 15-dB CM reflection loss, isolation, and insertion loss bandwidths for the two BFPDs are superior to 462 MHz and 1290 MHz, respectively.
