Abstract :
Earlier work on the analysis and experimental performance of 3-port and 4-port waveguide circulators over the waveguide bandwidth has shown some discrepancies. The computed performance tended to be too optimistic. It is shown that an extension of Davies´ analysis to include higher order cylindrical modes and evanescent modes in the waveguide arms yields excellent correlation between theory and practice.
