Abstract

This paper describes the design and simulation of a Y-junction circulator at 2.5GHz frequency. We show that this nonreciprocal device when externally tuned as a circulator exhibits RLs and ISs of better than 10dB across a wide band; the ILs are on the order of 1.5 dB within this same band. Results confirm the conclusion that a ferrite with linewidth 480 Oe, saturation magnetization 3900 Gauss and permeability is 11.7 suitable for circulator radar applications.
