Analysis of Slow-Wave Instability in Rectangularly Corrugated Cylindrical Waveguide
نویسنده
چکیده
Slow-wave instability in a rectangularly corrugated cylindrical waveguide is analyzed. Fields inside corrugation is expressed by a sum of space harmonics satisfying the boundary conditions at the corrugation wall. The corrugation fields are matched to periodic fields outside the corrugation at the boundary of the two regions. Infinitesimally thin annular electron beam is considered including the three-dimensional perturbations. Effects of space harmonics in the corrugation along with the corrugation depth are examined. Slow cyclotron instability in addition to Cherenkov instability occurs when perturbed motions and modulations of infinitely thin surface are included.

Linear analysis of a finite length plasma-filled backward wave oscillator
Absolute instability in a plasma-filled backward wave oscillator with sinusoidally corrugated slow wave structure driven by an intense relativistic electron beam has been analyzed numerically. The maximum spatial growth rate of the plasma-filled waveguide is found to be larger than that of an optimally designed vacuum structure. The excitation of a finite length structure is investigated.

A radial line slot antenna (RLSA) in Fig.1 is a high-gain, high-efficiency and low-cost planer antenna, which was originally proposed for satellite TV reception at 12GHz band [1]. Recently this antenna has been designed for a space solar power system (SSPS) [2],[3]. Figure 2 shows the relationship between the slow-wave factor and the aperture efficiency. The slow-wave factor ξ is defined as ξ=λ...

In the present article, a numerical study is performed to investigate the crushing behavior of cylindrical and conical corrugated composite tubes. Different aluminum foams are applied to the proposed structures in order to offer an excellent energy absorption capacity. The crushing behavior of tubes are evaluated in terms of two parameters: SEA (specific energy absorption) and CFE (crush force ...
متن کاملBuckling Analysis of Axially Loaded Corrugated Cylindrical Shells
Buckling analyses of heavily corrugated cylindrical shells based on detailed full finite element models are usually computationally expensive. To address this issue, we have proposed an efficient computational method of predicting the onset of buckling for corrugated cylindrical shells which builds on the Bloch wave method for infinitely periodic structures. We modified the traditional Bloch wa...

recently a new structure called groove gap waveguide (GGW) is introduced to implement low loss microwave component devices especially for millimeter wave applications. This paper presents a new type of H-plane horn antenna making use of this new technology in which backward radiation is significantly suppressed by introducing a high impedance surface at the antenna aperture.
