ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is one method and one apparatus which teach improved techniques in using a shaped bias magnetic field over the active region of a ferrite stripline circulator/isolator circuit. The axial component of the bias field is decreased from the center toward edge, thus it is able to accommodate the accompanying changes in magnetization. This fulfills the requirements that frequencies are scaled with distances thereby warranting broadband operation. Furthermore, the radial component of the bias field is reduced, so as to minimize the generation of non-circulation volume modes. The discontinuity in magnetization distributed over the circulator/isolator active region is reduced, so as to minimize the generation of magnetostatic surface modes. The resultant circulator/isolator performance can thus show a broad bandwidth with improved characteristics in insertion loss and in isolation.
