An anisotropic magnetized ferrite material is used in a microstrip circulator to isolate one port while providing output to the other.
XFdtd® can be used for the analysis of coplanar stripline structures.
A Lange Coupler is used to test the validity of the FDTD method and XFDTD in the analysis of microstrip structures. Further reading on similar structures is also available in this example.
