Abstract :
New results are presented for the circulation conditions and predicted performance of a symmetrical Y ring circulator (6 GHz) and of a new asymmetrical W disk circulator (94 GHz). The latter has two ports positioned 60 degrees away from a middle port. The components can, in principle, be more compact than conventional disk circulators. An immediate application of a W disk structure would be as a compact isocirculator with a matched load on the middle port.<>
