Design of a high power, 10 GHz auto-resonant peniotron amplifier

Abstract

The autoresonant peniotron amplifier is a suitable source of high power RF radiation because of its high gain, high power, high frequency and high efficiency operation features. In this report we present our simulation results of a 10 GHz, 2.2 GW autoresonant peniotron amplifier with an electron energy conversion efficiency of 72.5 % and a gain of about 58 dB
