  • Abstract
    The modes used in the construction of x-junction microstrip circulators are a pair of radial TM±3,1,0 degenerate modes and a radial TM0,1,0 mode. A direct magnetic field is applied to split the degeneracy between the former modes. A micro-strip ring resonator is chosen to immediately satisfy the first two of the three circulation conditions for this type of junction. Experimental results support theoretical designs.
