We have developed a radio-frequency (RF) power divider that is used for an
RF distribution system in high-energy electron storage rings. This power di
vider has four waveguide ports, and it can split a high RF power by a ratio
of 1:2 at an operating frequency of about 508.6 MHz. Since other propertie
s are very similar to those of a magic-T, it is very suitable for accelerat
or applications. By combining this device with a conventional magic-T, one
can design an RF distribution system in which three cavities are driven by
a single klystron. The design procedure of the power divider, a low-power m
easurement, and a high-power test result are presented in this paper.
