SUMMARY OF Phase-nonreciprocal metamaterials support wave propagation with positive and

Ph.D THESIS: negative refractive indices in opposite directions at the same frequency. This

phenomenon was applied to the design of pseudo-traveling-wave resonator and

leaky wave antenna with enhanced gain, directivity and beam scanning at a fixed

frequency. The general problem of conventional leaky wave antennas is beam

squinting. Beam squinting is reduced in pseudo-traveling-wave resonance-type

antennas. In this work, it was comprehensively demonstrated that beam squinting

can be eliminated when nonreciprocity in phase constant have a non-dispersive

frequency profile. The discussed metamaterial design can also be applied to new

beam antenna with polarization rotation switching by the means of dc magnetic field.

The problem of microstrip line-based nonreciprocal metamaterials is insufficient

magnitude of nonreciprocity. An approach to enhancing the nonreciprocity in phase

constant alone was proposed using a ferrite loaded coplanar waveguide structure.

The advantage of the approach is in using the same materials as in previous work,

while allowing operation on higher frequencies with higher magnitude of

nonreciprocity.
