Simulation of a three-millimeter-band pulse travelling wave tube

Аннотация

The results of numerical simulation of electrodynamic characteristics of a slow-wave structure shaped as a folded waveguide and an electron–optical system of a three-millimeter-band pulse travelling wave tube with an output pulsed power of up to 50 W are presented. The matching devices, the interaction space, and the electron–optical system are calculated, which allows determination of their constructive parameters. The effect of loss caused by the roughness of the surfaces of the walls of the electrodynamic system on the output characteristics of the device is estimated.
