Effects of Random Circuit Fabrication Errors on the Mean and Standard Deviation of Small Signal Gain and Phase of a Traveling Wave Tube

Random fabrication errors may have detrimental effects on the performance of traveling wave tubes (TWTs) of all types, especially in the sub-millimeter wavelength regime and beyond. Previous studies calculated the standard deviation of the small signal gain and the output phase of a TWT in the prese...
