HIGH POWER CIRCULATOR DEVELOPMENT

Abstract

The S band circulator was constructed using the principle of small aperture coupling between an unloaded guide and one which is gyromagnetically loaded, to produce a nonreciprocal coupling leading to circulator action. A description is given of the method used to compute the coupler performance. Experimental determinations are described which were made on the ferrite loaded guide and the ferrite material. Results of a preliminary high power test and performance data on an initial breadboard model are included. Research is concerned with the development of design techniques for the construction of very high power circulators. (Author)
