Abstract

A model of a six-pole nonreciprocal transformer representing a helicon resonator with three inductance coils placed at 120° angles is discussed. Calculations of transformer’s inductive parameters and scattering matrix components are presented. It is shown that such a transformer appears to be a nonreciprocal Y-circulator.
