Generation and amplification of microwave chaotic oscillations in the hybrid system «traveling wave tube with collector-generator»

Autors:

Abstract: 

In the paper, the noval hybrid microwave electronic device based on a traveling wave tube and multisectional collector with virtual cathode is suggested and experimentally investigated. The virtual cathode is formed in the electron beam by applying a braking electric field in the collector, i.e. in the part of the device following to the interaction space of traveling wave tube. It is shown, that microwave broad band chaotic signals are generated and amplified in the device. The corresponding curve has the negligible cutting. Spectral and powers characteristics of the signals for various regimes of the device operation have been found.
