In this paper a novel compact 6-way Wilkinson power divider coupler (WPD) using composite lines is proposed, simulated and fabricated. The proposed structure consists of a 2-way divider and two 3-way dividers. The applied dividers have equal division ratios. In the proposed structure long quadrature wavelength lines are replaced with small composite lines, which results in size reduction and harmonics suppression. Moreover for improved output ports isolations a resistor and a capacitor are used together. The designed device correctly works on 5.1 GHz
