    Abstract: A non-reciprocal band pass filter including a transmission line having a plurality of repeating finite size unit cells, where each unit cell has a predetermined length and includes an inductor and a varactor. The filter also includes a signal source providing a transmission signal that propagates on the transmission line, and a modulation source providing a modulation signal that modulates the varactor. A ratio between the predetermined length of the unit cells and a frequency of the modulation signal is selected to provide propagation modes that allow the transmission signal to propagate along the transmission line in one direction in a controlled pass band, but prevent the transmission signal from propagating along the transmission line in the opposite direction in the controlled pass band.
