HIGH-FREQUENCY POWER SYSTEM FOR LINEAR CHARGED-PARTICLE ACCELERATOR Russian patent published in 1996 - IPC

FIELD: pulsed peak-power systems for accelerating structures. SUBSTANCE: connected to output of high-frequency power amplifier 2 coupled with master oscillator 1 through phase shifter 7 is high-frequency pulse shaping system built up of storage cavity 5 and series-connected circulator 4, switch 6, delay line 7, and high-frequency output bridge 8. Turning on master oscillator 1 applies high-frequency power reflected from storage cavity 5 through conducting switch 6 to delay line 7. This changes signal phase across input of amplifier 3 and turns off switch 6 with the result that high-frequency power is also fed to second arm of bridge 8 over direct coupling line through circulator 4. Power values at output arm of bridge 8 are added due to adequate selection of its coupling factors. EFFECT: improved peak power and efficiency of device. 1 dwg
