Jones matrix for round-trip wave propagation in nonreciprocal media.
Using a communication channel model, we prove the known theorem that the Jones matrix of a system for backward propagation is the transpose of that for forward propagation. This result, together with the transformation of a coordinate system for opposite propagation directions, is shown to be useful for analyzing the round-trip wave propagation in nonreciprocal media.
