<p>A tunable circuit that functions as a power divider and a single pole double throw (SPDT) switch is proposed in this paper. The power divider design was based on the conventional Wilkinson power divider (WPD). Since WPD design has wideband properties, a modification was made in the design to make it narrowband so that it will only work for WiMAX applications. Two shorted stubs were introduced in the transmission line of the output ports to encounter the mismatch when the function was switched to an SPDT switch. Rogers RO4350 (er = 3.48, h = 0.508mm) was used as a substrate material and copper (thickness = 0.035 mm) related to patch of this proposed design. When the circuit functioned as a power divider, the simulated result showed S11 < -16 dB, S12 > 3.97 dB, and S23 < -14 dB for both operating frequencies of 2.5 GHz and 3.5 GHz. On the other hand, when the circuit functioned as an SPDT switch and port 2 was in the ON state, the simulated result showed S11 < -35 dB, S12 > -1.1, S13 < -16 dB, and S23 < 18 dB for both operating frequencies of 2.5 and 3.5 GHz. The proposed design showed a good performance as a power divider and an SPDT switch, thus, it can be used for multifunctional microwave circuits.</p>

“…Therefore, in order to fulfil these targets, a lot of reconfigurable antennas have been demonstrated in practice and examined [1]- [3]. Advanced feeding network is essential to support the systems such as smart antennas and phase-array antennas to be fully achieved [4]- [6]. The Wilkinson power divider (WPD) is one of the essential components in various microwave circuits and it has been commonly used for combination and power division in antenna feeding networks [6]- [9].…”

Design and simulation for reconfigurable Wilkinson Power Divider (WPD) related to WiMAX application is proposed in this paper. This proposed design relates to dual band WiMAX frequencies at 2.5 GHz and 3.5 GHz. The main purpose of this design is to design a switchable feeding network that can cover the WiMAX standards by reconfiguring the microstrip line length using PIN diode switches. Besides, the power divider also can be design and develop as power combiner due to the passive component structure and hence reciprocal. In this proposed Wilkinson power divider, different band of frequencies for WiMAX application are obtained by using PIN diode. By turning 'ON' and 'OFF' the PIN diode, different frequencies are achieved between 2.5 and 3.5 GHz. This proposed design used Rogers RO4350 (er = 3.48, h = 0.508mm) as a substrate material and copper (thickness = 0.002 mm) related to patch of design. This simulation results showed that the S11 is less than -15dB; and S12 and S13 are better than5dB. Based on these simulation results, the proposed WPD design using dual-band filter was well applied where it has better return loss (S11) with less than -15 dB for both WiMAX frequencies.

This paper presents a novel bidirectional planar monopole antenna array, with its feeding network, to apply for WiFi/Bluetooth and LTE mobile standards. The planar array is comprised of monopole antenna elements that utilise Archimedean spiral slots, inspired as resonance paths, in order to generate multi-band performance. Contrary to conventional structures, the feeding network is composed of three Wilkinson power dividers, for the purpose of providing synchronised output signals over the required frequency range, miniaturising dissipation losses and decreasing mutual coupling. Simulation and measurement results are presented for a single antenna element, an initial Wilkinson power divider and a four-element planar array, which reside on FR4 substrates. Successfully comparison between simulated and measured results verifies that the single antenna element achieves a 10 dB reflection coefficient from 2.2GHz to 2.9GHz, and the planar antenna array illustrates a 10 dB return loss bandwidth from 2.4GHz to 3.1GHz, which could cover WiFi/Bluetooth (2.45GHz) and LTE (2.6GHz) mobile applications. The proposed planar monopole antenna array also obtains large gain, high efficiency, narrow beam, low side lobe level and highly symmetric bidirectional radiation pattern in both E-and H-plane.
