Splitter/Combiner
If used, the splitter and combiner are used to split the RF signal into, and
combine the amplified RF signal out of the final amplifier pallets, within an
amplifier/transmitter enclosure. The splitter and combiner can be 2-, 3-, or 4-way
depending on how many finals pallets are used. Most designs are based on the
simple isolated Wilkinson combiner design. Due to its electrical and mechanical
symmetry, the Wilkinson design’s performance over moderate bandwidths is
superior to other types.
