Abstract

Novel super‐compact (λ~g~/13 by λ~g~/13) left‐handed (LH) unit cell ForeS, based on grounded spirals, is analyzed in detail. ForeS exhibits low insertion losses and a large design flexibility: small changes of its inner dimensions, result in resonant frequency tuning range approximately equal to 67%. In the same time, the second harmonic is positioned at more then four times the first resonant frequency. By placing the diodes at the relevant positions, ForeS can be made electronically reconfigurable: 27% resonant frequency tuning range can be achieved, as well as different in‐ and out‐of‐band performances. Two LH transmission lines are designed using ForeS that offer a trade‐off between LH bandwidth and pass band ripple. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

## Abstract In this paper, a novel Wilkinson power divider utilizing left‐handed transmission lines (LHTLs) is presented. The proposed device was fabricated by using the lumped L–C (−λ/4) LHTLs instead of the right‐handed transmission lines branch arms of the conventional Wilkinson power divider. B
