Microwave radio frequency power divider/combiner

A microwave radio frequency power divider/combiner comprising:

• a signal input/output matching network coupled between a signal input/output and a central point of said divider/combiner;
• M impedance transformer sections connected in parallel to said central point and radiating outwardly therefrom, each of said M transformer sections having a first predetermined length, where M is an integer greater than one;
• M pairs of impedance transformer sections, each pair of said M pairs of transformer sections being coupled to an end of a different one of said M transformer sections remote from said central point, each transformer section of said M pairs of transformer sections having said first predetermined length;
• N output/input ports each coupled to an end of a different one of said transformer sections of said M pairs of transformer sections remote from said M transformer sections, each of said N ports being matched to a given impedance, where N is equal to 2M;
• 2N isolation networks including 2N termination impedances each having one terminal thereof connected to ground, the other terminal of each of a given N of said 2N termination impedances being connected by a different one of first N impedance transformer sections to said N ports, and the other terminal of each of the remaining N of said 2N termination impedances being connected by a different one of second N impedance transformer sections to said end of said M transformer sections remote from said central point, each of said first and second N transformer sections having said first predetermined length;
• and
• N transmission line sections each having a second predetermined length different than said first predetermined length, each of said N transmission line sections interconnecting different adjacent ones of said 2N isolation networks in pairs.
