Abstract :
This paper presents an accurate analysis of six port circulators. Each port is subdivided into several ports with edge effects taken into consideration. The six-port circulator offers lower frequency and broader band than similar three-port circulators. Analysis presented in this paper is verified by comparison to experimental results.
