Abstract
Abstract Dual-band composite right/left-handed transmission lines with the nonreciprocal phase shift approximately proportional to the operating frequency are proposed and demonstrated by using normally magnetized ferrite microstrip lines. The nonreciprocal phase shift can be dynamically controlled by changing the externally applied dc magnetic field. Dynamic change in the nonreciprocal phase gradient along the line enables us to realize dual-band and unidirectional beam-scanning leaky-wave antennas without suffering from frequency-dependent change in the beam direction. A prototype nonreciprocal metamaterial line using polycrystalline yttrium iron garnet was fabricated and measured for verification of our basic concept.
