Multi-beam klystrons operate at reduced electron-gun voltage, and higher total beam-current than the single-beam designs, thus preventing occasional destructive gun- diode discharges, and increasing the power-efficiency up to ~ 75%. The power-efficiency (measured as the ratio of output microwave power to input DC power) is however still limited, even in MBK, as it is obviously impossible to extract all the microwave energy from a sharply-bunched electron-beam, without having the high space-charge-density of the slowing beam force it into uncontrollable defocusing.","PeriodicalId":117975,"journal":{"name":"2007 IEEE Antennas and Propagation Society International Symposium","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-06-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122726850","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

An antenna structure with two ports is considered. One port is used to couple the signal, while the other one is connected to a non-Foster network. The advantage of this configuration is that the antenna can be designed to have real input impedance, as seen from the feeding port, fairly constant across a very broad band when the active load is applied. The input reactance compensation is essentially performed by the non-Foster network, typically behaving as a negative inductor.","PeriodicalId":117975,"journal":{"name":"2007 IEEE Antennas and Propagation Society International Symposium","volume":"51 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-06-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122456092","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
