<p>In this paper, a novel design method for quad-band Wilkinson power dividers is proposed. The design method is based on using a quad-band microstrip line.

To validate the proposed method, an equal quad-band power divider operating at four bands of 0.7, 1.2, 1.78, and 2.28 GHz was simulated and measured. Good agreement between measured results and simulated ones is obtained.
