This document analyzes a compact power divider designed to operate at 940 MHz. It presents the circuit diagram, S-parameter diagram, and block diagram of the power divider. It then evaluates the return losses, which refer to power lost due to reflections, and insertion losses, which refer to power lost as the signal passes through the divider. The analysis demonstrates the importance of evaluating these losses for assessing the power divider's performance and compatibility with advanced RF systems.
3. Introduction
The purpose of this report is to present an analysis of a compact power divider designed for
operation at a frequency of 940 MHz. The power divider is a crucial component in various RF
and microwave systems, enabling the division of power into multiple output ports. This report
focuses on the evaluation of the return loss and insertion loss of the power divider, considering an
advanced system design.
7. Return Losses
The definition of return loss is that it is the loss of power in the signal returned / reflected by a
discontinuity in a transmission line or load.
9. Conclusion
The analysis of the compact power divider designed for operation at 940 MHz frequency
demonstrates the importance of evaluating return loss and insertion loss in advanced system
design. The obtained results allow for an assessment of the power divider's performance and its
compatibility with modern RF systems. Further improvements can be made based on the analysis
to enhance the power divider's efficiency and minimize signal loss.
