Abstract:A novel taper H-plane loaded folded waveguide (FWG) slow wave structure (SWS) for traveling wave tube (TWT) amplifier has been presented. The high-frequency characteristics and the amplification performance have been investigated. The results implied that this structure possessed higher transverse dimension and higher efficiency than those of the traditional FWG-SWS.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
