64-Way Power Divider, 0.96~1.4GHz, 50W

A 64-way power divider is a passive RF device that equally splits one input signal into 64 output paths while maintaining amplitude and phase consistency among all output ports. Such devices are widely used in phased array antenna feed networks, multi-channel signal monitoring, and distributed test systems. Targeting applications in the L-band, this article introduces a 64-way power divider operating in this frequency range, which combines wideband performance with high channel consistency to meet the requirements of various array and multi-channel parallel systems.

Features:

1. Wideband operation: Covers 0.96~1.4GHz, suitable for satellite navigation, mobile communications, aeronautical communications, and other systems within this band.
2. Low insertion loss: Total insertion loss is kept at a low level, with minimal excess loss, helping to maintain link dynamic range.
3. High isolation: Excellent isolation between any two output ports effectively suppresses inter-channel crosstalk.
4. Excellent amplitude and phase consistency: Amplitude and phase imbalances are controlled within a small range, meeting the requirements for phased array calibration and beamforming.
5. Good power handling capability: The input port can withstand a certain level of continuous wave power, suitable for signal distribution at the front end of a transmit chain.

Applications:

1. Phased array antenna feed network: Provides equal amplitude and equal phase excitation for 64-element arrays, supporting beam scanning systems for 5G base stations and satellite communication ground terminals.
2. Multi-channel signal monitoring and direction finding: Enables wideband parallel signal acquisition when used with multi-channel receivers, for applications such as radio spectrum monitoring, interference source localization, and electronic warfare.
3. Distributed test systems: In EMC chambers or multi-point field strength testing, distributes a single signal source to 64 measurement points for batch radiated susceptibility testing of equipment.
4. Radar and navigation simulation: Builds multi-channel simulators for radar array unit calibration and anti-jamming algorithm verification of navigation terminals.
