A Frequency Independent Framework for Synthesis of Programmable Non-reciprocal Networks.

Passive and linear nonreciprocal networks at microwave frequencies hold great promises in enabling new front-end architectures for wireless communication systems. Their non-reciprocity has been achieved by disrupting the time-reversal symmetry using various forms of biasing schemes, but only over a limited frequency range. Here we demonstrate a framework for synthesizing theoretically frequency-independent multi-port nonreciprocal networks.
