For this purposes, a new family of wideband, nonreciprocal rectangular waveguide structures loaded with ferrites has been designed with a full-wave electromagnetic simulation tool. The design also includes the required magnetostatic field biasing circuits. The multipactor breakdown power levels have also been predicted with an accurate electron tracking code using measured values for the secondary electron yield (SEY) coefficient. The measured results agree well with simulations, thereby fully validating the experimental campaign.", optnote="WOS:000470969100006", optnote="exported from refbase (https://references.ific.uv.es/refbase/show.php?record=4056), last updated on Thu, 27 Jun 2019 06:57:30 +0000", issn="0018-9480", doi="10.1109/TMTT.2019.2915546", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1109/TMTT.2019.2915546", language="English" }
