Chaotic millimeter-wave generation on the basis of wideband gyro-amplifiers with a helical corrugated waveguide

Resumo

The possibility of generating random noiselike radiation in gyro-amplifiers with a helical corrugated waveguide when introducing delayed feedback has been shown. The cyclotron resonance detuning corresponding to the maximum slope of the amplitude characteristic of an amplifier after saturation is optimal for implementing the mode of developed dynamic chaos. Assessments are carried out for the parameters of a noise generator based on an experimentally implemented gyro-travelling-wave tube of 35-GHz band, according to which the generation of multifrequency radiation is possible with a spectrum width of 3—4 GHz, an average power up to 70 kW, and an efficiency of order of 10%.
