Abstract

A new approach to design a dual-band matching network using a dual-band quarter-wave line is presented. The proposed matching network is capable of simultaneously matching frequency-dependent complex loads (FDCLs) having different values at two arbitrary frequencies to a real source impedance, Z0. A very simple step-wise design procedure is discussed for the transformer along with closed-form design equations which are very simple in nature. For experimental verification, two PCB prototypes have been fabricated using FR-4 material, operating at 1 GHz and 2.42 GHz. The measurements results matches well with that obtained from simulation, exhibiting good performance.
