Design an ultra-wideband modified wilkinson power divider fed-by balanced antipodal vivaldi antenna array for imaging applications

In this paper, design of compact and modified geometrical structure of 1-to-4 way ultra-wideband Wilkinson power divider used as a feeding network for 4-element of balanced antipodal Vivaldi antenna (BAVA) array has introduced. The proposed Wilkinson power divider has been designed and printed on lo...
