Transmission Line-based Wave Digital Models of Inphase Gysel Power Dividers

The paper proposes a framework for the design of the wave digital (WD) model of three-port microwave device. To accomplish this task, transmission line (TL)-based wave digital approach is applied, i.e. basic wave digital building blocks like unit elements, circuit elements and interconnection networks are used. As a case study, traditional Gysel power divider and modified Gysel power divider are considered. Clearly, the formed TL-based WD models of these power dividers are in a very good agreement with such models formed in Advanced Design System schematic and HFSS electromagnetic simulation software.
