Abstract
A power divider is provided with a structure that diagnoses whether a correct connection is achieved. The power divider includes a first line that is configured to connect an antenna to a first unit and a second line that is configured to connect the antenna to a second unit. A resistor is configured to allow a current flowing from the second unit to the second line to be applied to a ground terminal. Additionally, a capacitor is disposed on the second line to prevent the current applied to the second line from flowing to the first line.
Claims7
A power divider, comprising:
- an input terminal connected to an antenna;
- a first output terminal connected to the input terminal via a first line to output a signal;
- a second output terminal connected to the input terminal via a second line to output the signal;
- a resistor configured to allow a current flowing to the second line via the second output terminal to be applied to a ground terminal;
- and
- a capacitor disposed on the second line to prevent the current applied to the second line from flowing to the first line,
- wherein the current is applied to the first line via a first unit connected to the first output terminal to diagnose a connection state among the antenna, the first line, and the first unit, and
- wherein the current is applied to the second line via a second unit connected to the second output terminal to diagnose a connection state between the second line and the second unit.
A power divider, comprising:
