A Comparative Study of a Ka-Band High Harmonic Peniotron

Article Preview

Abstract:

This paper demonstrates the operating characteristics of a ka-band magnetron-type slotted peniotron. The third-harmonic four-vane peniotron operates in a circularly polarized 2π mode. We have compared the results between theoretical analysis and PIC simulation of the peniotron. The results show that, with proper acceleration voltage and beam current, the peniotron is predicted to generate a pure 2π mode electromagnetic wave, and the theoretical analysis predicted and PIC simulation demonstrated output power are as high as 52 kW and 45 kW at 29.7 GHz, respectively.
