Microwave pulse compression using helically corrugated waveguides and its potential for generating ultra-high power RF radiation

The use of a helically corrugated waveguide as a dispersive medium for microwave pulse compression will be presented. The helically corrugated waveguide has a large variation in group-velocity with frequency, in a region far from cut-off. This compressor does not suffer from reflections associated w...

Streszczenie:The use of a helically corrugated waveguide as a dispersive medium for microwave pulse compression will be presented. The helically corrugated waveguide has a large variation in group-velocity with frequency, in a region far from cut-off. This compressor does not suffer from reflections associated with operation near to cut-off and therefore can be used at the output of a high-power microwave device. © 2004 IEEE.
