“…A plasma maser (plasma relativistic microwave generator) is a source of powerful microwave radiation in which the Cherenkov effect of the interaction of a high-current relativistic electron beam (REB) with a slow wave of a plasma waveguide is realized [13]- [15]. The configurations of plasma masers differ in the relative position of the REB and plasma and are described in detail in [16], [17].…”

The purpose of this paper is to present the design and implementation of a reconfigurable remote control for performing plasma experiments with Hard-Real-Time (HRT) synchronization under jitter less than 1 microsecond. An additional requirement for a multichannel synchronization system is the use of high-speed optical converters to provide galvanic isolation between powerful modules of the setup and remote control in order to exclude any possibility of disruption of the physical experiment control system. Modeling and development of the software part of the maser remote control panel was performed in the LabVIEW application development environment with Real Time and FPGA modules. The hardware part of the control panel is implemented on a real-time controller working in conjunction with the Xilinx FPGA module. To ensure the optical isolation of synchronization signals, boards of electron-optical converters based on LED lasers with fiber-optic terminals were developed and manufactured. The control program is implemented in a two-module architecture with a HOST application and an FPGA application that exchange data over a 1000BASE-T Ethernet network.

“…One of the most important tasks for modern radio engineering is the creation of ultra-wideband devices that could operate stably in a wide frequency range while maintaining a high power of microwave radiation. Such devices, in particular, are plasma relativistic microwave generators (PRGs) [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9]. PRGs feature a wide range of operating frequencies (from 2 to 25 GHz), high signal power (50-100 MW), the ability to work in the mode of generating a single pulse or in a frequency-periodic mode, or in the mode of generating monochromatic or broadband radiation.…”

The output path characteristics of a plasma relativistic microwave generator (PRG) was investigated. The dependence of the directional pattern (DP), the directional action factor (directivity) and the transfer characteristic on the frequency in the range of 3-10 GHz are obtained. A significant change in the shape of the DP and an increase in the directivity with increasing frequency and good matching of the transfer characteristic in a wide frequency range were found. It is shown that in the considered radiation extraction system it is necessary to carry out the optimal choice of the operating frequency of the PRG on the basis of a compromise between a high value of directivity and distortion of the directional pattern.
