A novel meander coupled line power divider for wide band operation from 0.5 GHz to 2.5 GHz with reduced size for mobile application is proposed in this paper. The wide band operation of the coupled line power divider is obtained using open stubs and defected ground structures. The folding of the coupled line reduces the size of the power divider. The proposed power divider has 65% of size reduction in comparison with the existing power divider. All the S-parameters such as return loss, insertion loss, and isolation at different ports are simulated and measured. Bandwidth of 2 GHz is obtained. Both the simulated and measured results agree with each other. Hence it is useful for mobile phone application up to 4G. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
