In this paper, a broadband unidirectional acoustic transmission based on inhomogeneous metamaterial shell with radial piecewise linear sound speed distribution is proposed. Acoustic rays in the case of external and internal incidences from the shell are deduced by geometric acoustic theory to show the unidirectional acoustic propagation in the polar coordinate system. Numerical full-wave simulations reveal that one way transmission has the intensity-independent unidirectional transmission feature over a wide frequency range. Finally, a scheme for realization of the proposed one way transmission model is designed and simulated by using multilayered materials, suggesting its potential applications in noise control, acoustic rectifiers, wave absorption and related fields.
