Abstract
An isolator assembly includes a capacitively-coupled isolator assembly. In some implementations, the capacitively-coupled isolator element may provide multi-band isolation by having an electrically-floating conductive coupling element with a length that is ½ or ¼ of a carrier wavelength. In other implementations, multiple capacitively-coupled elements may be employed to achieve multi-band isolation.
