The concept of building a software system for designing traveling-wave tubes (TWTs) with resonator slow-wave structures (SWSs) and models for its implementation is described. The cm- and mm-wave TWT designs developed on the basis of the VEGA software are presented.
Results of numerical modeling of slow-wave structure and the electron-optical system of wide-band TWT with continuous output power above 200 W and a gain of 23 dB, for use in vacuum-solid-state amplifier module X / Ku-band have been given.
Microwave radiation of two passing or counter electron beams promising for amplification and generation of microwaves in regime of electronic mode as well as for energy extraction using directional radiation. In the twobeam devices on the passing beams amplification determined by the longitudinal beams interaction with different speed. Usage of counter beams allows us to consider the generation of microwaves in the longitudinal interaction with internal feedback to the flow.
