Propagation in Circular Waveguide Loaded with an Azimuthally Magnetized Ferrite Tube (Short Papers)

A new computer method for the study of radially inhomogeneous guiding structures presenting circular symmetry is utilized to determine propagation properties of a ferrite loaded guide. The nonreciprocal characteristics obtained can be used to design latching rotators and differential phase shifters for polarization orthogonality restoration in high-frequency (above 10 GHz) communication systems with frequency reuse.
