In an example, a circulator is disclosed. The circulator includes a waveguide housing having a plurality of hollow waveguide arms that communicate with a central cavity. The waveguide arms include, and the central cavity is defined by, a floor, a ceiling, and a plurality of sidewalls connected between the floor and the ceiling. At least one of the floor or the ceiling includes at least one step which defines a junction between a first region having a first height between the floor and the ceiling and one or more second regions having a second height between the floor and the ceiling. The first region is proximate the central cavity and the one or more second regions are proximate the waveguide arms. The first height is larger than the second height. |
