Problems solved by technology

[0004] The solution of the present invention is based on the basic structure of the traditional microstrip microwave circulator, aiming at the proportion of ferrite in the structure made of substrate and ferrite diaphragm under the same thickness is often very small, resulting in The effective permeability tensor k / μ is small, and the proportion of ferrite in the structure is increased by increasing the thickness of the ferrite diaphragm, and the effective permeability tensor k / μ is effectively improved. , the thickness (volume) of the structure will also increase significantly, which is not conducive to the integration of microwave circuits.
