An impedance matching power combining/dividing system and method are presented. The impedance matching power combiner/divider includes a cylindrical matching cavity, two or more coaxial inputs each having inner and outer conductors, a coaxial output having an inner output conductor and an outer output conductor and a circular matching plate suspended inside the cylindrical matching cavity. The inner input and output conductors are electrically connected to the matching plate and the outer input and outer output conductors are also electrically connected to the cylindrical matching cavity. The cylindrical matching cavity at least partially matches a source impedance with a load impedance. A system and method to combine/divide groups of power combiners/dividers to handle high power are also presented. The power combiners/dividers have a small transverse dimension that they easily fit in a phased array lattice structure and operate at high frequencies. |
