The design method of a four-port stripline circulator with a single ferrite disk is proposed using Green's function method. The four-port circulator gives the flexibility of the design of the communication system. Two cascaded three-port circulators has been used as a four-port circulator. However, if a four-port circulator with a single ferrite disk replace the present four-port circulator, then it will give less weight and volume and so has the advantage in satellite application.

We designed an ultra-high frequency (UHF: 300MHz to 3 GHz) ferrite circulator to investigate magnetic parameters, which are suitable for a self-biased GHz circulator design. The size of the ferrite disk was 1.58 mm in thickness and 13.5 mm in diameter. The saturation magnetization ($4{\pi}M_s$) of 3900 Gauss, internal magnetic field ($H_{in}$) of 1 kOe, and ferromagnetic linewidth (${\Delta}H$) of 354 Oe were used in circulator performance simulation. The simulation results show the isolation of 36.4 dB and insertion loss of 2.76 dB at 2.6 GHz and were compared to measured results. A Ni-Zn ferrite circulator was fabricated based on the above design parameters. An out-of-plane DC magnetic field ($H_0$) of 4.8 kOe was applied to the fabricated circulator to measure isolation, insertion loss, and bandwidth. Experimental magnetic parameters for the ferrite were $H_{in}$ of about 1.33 kOe and $4{\pi}M_s$ of 3935 Gauss. The isolation 43.9 dB and insertion loss of 5.6 dB measured at 2.5 GHz are in close agreement with the simulated results of the designed ferrite circulator. Based on the simulated and experimental results, we demonstrate that the following magnetic parameters are suitable for 2 GHz self-biased circulator design: $4{\pi}M_r$ of 3900 Gauss, $H_a$ of 4.5 kOe, $H_c$ greater than 3.4 kOe, and ${\Delta}H$ of 50 Oe.

In this paper, a 3-port waveguide circulator of Ka-band millimeter-wave for isolation between transmit channel and receive channel at high power transmit mode is designed and fabricated for the seeker of the guided missile and circulator performance is verified through the S-parameter, high power and operation temperature test. At the configuration design, interface design between a seeker antenna and the circulator is considered and half-height of standard waveguide is applied for minimum and light weight body. The shape of permanent magnet and ferrite is optimized by simulation and tuning dielectrics at each port are placed for the best performance. In Fc(center frequency)${\pm}1000MHz$, designed waveguide circulator has below -20 dB return loss, below 0.5 dB insertion loss and below -23 dB isolation. It is found that circulator characteristics is similar to design results.

This paper describes the design of planar circulators with propellers resonator including a plurality of symmetric magnetic walls. One purpose of the paper is to present insertion loss on this resonator for magnetic loss, dielectric loss, magnetic field and saturation magnetization. Another is to study the effect of propeller resonator on response characteristics. The paper includes the description of one commercial circulator that is compatible with the data obtained

planar circulator swith arbitrarily shaped ferrite resonators are analyzed in this paper. First, resonant frequencies and field distributions for the magnetized ferrite resonator are obtained using finite element method (FEM). Then the RF voltage distributions and other circuit parameters of the circulator which is formed by connecting three suitable transmission lines ot the ferrite resonator are derived from the green function . To remove the spurious solutions in analyzing the ferrite resonator, the results of eigenvalue analysis by node based FEM are comapred with the edge based fEM. The green function is expanded in terms of normalized eigenfunctions of th ecorresponding wave equation. Circulator parameters for circular disk resonator are clculated and compared with the analytical results. The experimental data for the designed circulator using hexagonal reosnator in the 850 MHz frequency range agree well iwth the simulated data.

Due to the recent Corona 19 outbreak, camping culture is rapidly drawing attention from many people. Convective heating devices, which many campers use during winter, have the temperature stratification problem. To solve this problem, various power circulators are being used. Several non-powered circulators are also on sale, but the direction of the circulator is designed to be at the right angle relative to the convection heating mechanism and the circulator does not properly play the role of air circulation. To solve this problem, a 3D printer is used to design a non-powered circulator in the same direction as the convection heating mechanism. Electricity is generated without power using Peltier element and ceramic paper and the circulator is produced to withstand heat using HTPLA-CF filament. This study presents a method to solve the temperature stratification problem through efficient convective circulation. In addition, the purpose of this study is to manufacture products at a lower cost by using a 3D printer.

Broadband operation of Y-junction microstrip circulator withlnonreciprocal device is predicteg by Rosenbaum using Bosma's Green function analysis. The anslysis has been modified to enable the scattering matrix and therefore the circulator bandwidth, to be found. The width of the coupling transmission lines is found to be a significant design parameter${\psi}$. A comparison of experimental and theoretical results for the 3-port junction shows that wide lines and a smaller 7.5U than usual disk radius can be used to obtain broadband operation. Circulator operates in the frequency band 5-11 GHz. The obtained maximum insertion loss is 0.5dB and the isolation is more than 15dB.
