A ferrite element for a circulator comprises a first segment extending in a first direction from a center portion of the ferrite element; a second segment extending in a second direction from the center portion of the ferrite element; and a third segment extending in a third direction from the center portion of the ferrite element. Each of the first segment, the second segment, and the third segment has a respective width and include a channel located at a respective distance from a center point of the ferrite element. At least one of the respective width of each segment or the respective distance from the center point for the channel in each segment is different for each respective segment such that the first segment operates over a first frequency sub-band, the second segment operates over a second frequency sub-band, and the third segment operates over a third frequency sub-band. |
