A wideband substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) power divider with enhanced out‐of‐band rejection is proposed. Periodic butterfly radial slots are etched on top layer of SIW to realise a pass‐band combining with high‐pass characteristics of SIW. An experimental circuit has been fabricated by the standard printed circuit board process. Simulated results are compared with measured data and good agreement is reported.
