RESONANT MICROWAVE COMPRESSOR Russian patent published in 2013 - IPC H01P7/06 H03K12/00 

FIELD: radio engineering.

SUBSTANCE: compressor includes single-mode coaxial resonator (1) with short-circuiting switches (2), energy input (3) and output elements, microwave commutator (6) and the capacity shortening by λ/4, which is a discharge gap of microwave commutator (6) and formed by breakage of inner conductor of resonator (1), where λ - operating wave length. Resonator (1) is symmetrical; its length L is equal to L=(4n+1/2)λ/2, where n>1. Input element (3) is located in the resonator centre, and output element is made in the form of two coaxial output T-pieces (4) lying in one plane with input element (3) and connected symmetrically to short-circuited arms of resonator (1), one for each arm, at the distance L₁=nλ/2 from corresponding short-circuiting switch (2) and distance L₁+λ/8=(n+1/4)λ/2 from centre of resonator (1), and summing coaxial T-piece (5) is connected symmetrically with straight arms to side arms of output T-pieces (4). Shortening capacity is located in the centre of resonator and divides the resonator into two parts, and in combination with output T-pieces of energy output element - into four equal parts.

EFFECT: higher output signal power.
