The normal-mode approach is used to design stripline-type ferrite coupled line circulators with alumina as a substrate and ferrite as a superstrate. The measurements that are taken clearly demonstrate the nonreciprocal behavior of these devices, with an average insertion loss of 5 dB and an isolatio

โฆ Synopsis
The design of microstrip ferrite coupled line (MFCL) circulators using normal mode theory and the first proof-of-principle experiments are described. The longitudinally magnetized ferrite slab is positioned on top of a pair of microstrip lines to form the FCL and this is used with a T -junction and a novel hybrid coupler to form a three-port and a four-port circulator, respectively. The results show MFCL circulator behavior for the first time, and impedance levels and discontinuities are discussed.
