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 have constructed a narrow-linewidth single-longitudinal-mode unidirectional $Er^{3+}$ -doped fiber laser using a fiber Bragg grating incorporated by a three port optical circulator with a compact configuration. Using a conventional delayed self-heterodyne detection technique with Mach-Zehnder interferometer a linewidth of 5 kHz was measured. In a single-longitudinal-mode operation, output power of up to 2.7 mW at 1548 nm were obtained for a launched pump power of 43 mW at 980 nm.
