Abstract

This paper presents direct T $M_{01}$-T $E_{11}$ small mode converter using circular waveguide with tilted structure for X-band high power system. It is designed to transmit microwave energy from Relativistic Backward-Wave Oscillator(RBWO) source to hem antenna effectively, with optimized geometry a parameter study The simulated and measured results of return loss, fractional power of each mode, impedance bandwidth and mode pattern are provided.d.

본 논문에서는 X밴드용 고출력 시스템에 적합한 경사진 원형 도파관 구조를 이용한 소형 T $M_{01}$-T $E_{11}$ 모드 변환기를 제안한다. 제안된 모드 변환기는 마이크로파 에너지가 RBWO 전원으로부터 혼 안테나로 효율적으로 전송되도록 파라미터 연구를 통해 최적화된 구조로 설계되었다. 그리고 반사손실, 각 모드의 전력, 임피던스 대역폭, 그리고 모드 패턴의 시뮬레이션 결과와 측정결과를 제시하였다.다.
