Abstract
This paper proposes a new design methodology of dual-band stripline circulator for wireless communications applications. As far as the monoband classic circulator is based on coupling the counter-rotating fundamental modes, the operating principle of dual-band phenomenon is based on studying both fundamental and upper resonant modes within ferrite disks. Electromagnetic (EM) simulations have shown that two categories of dual-band operation could be obtained: simple (unidirectional) and left-handed /right-handed (LH–RH) circulators. The application dedicated to these two original concepts will be discussed, and simulation results will be ensured by the measurement of two prototypes in order to validate the methodology’s reliability.
