    摘要:

    文章对W波段三槽梯形线耦合腔慢波结构(包括大功率输入输出耦合器和射频窗)的加工和冷测进行了研究。此慢波结构由一个矩形波导耦合器馈电,该耦合器由放置在输入腔短边上的三阶阶梯变换矩形波导组成。首先,利用仿真方法研究了慢波结构的色散、互作用阻抗、传输特性和注-波互作用。结果表明,采用三槽梯形线耦合腔慢波结构的行波管能够在91-96GHz的频率范围内提供大于1000 W的饱和输出功率,并且在94GHz频点,饱和输出功率最大,可以达到1125W。其次,采用高精度数控铣床加工出三槽梯形线慢波结构,并将其固定在非磁性不锈钢外壳中。文中给出了带有耦合器和射频窗的三槽梯形线慢波系统的测试结果,表明在90GHz到100GHz的频率范围内,S11 < -10dB。因此,三槽梯形线慢波结构在W波段大功率行波管方面具有应用前景。

    Abstract:

    This paper presents the fabrication and cold-test of a three-slot-staggered-ladder coupled cavity slow wave structure (CC-SWS) along with high power input-output couplers and RF windows in W-band. The SWS is fed by a rectangular waveguide coupler which is made up of a three-order step-transform rectangular waveguide placed on the short edge of the input cavity. Firstly, the dispersion, interaction impedance, transmission property and beam-wave interaction are studied using the simulation method. It is shown that the traveling wave tube (TWT) with a three-slot-staggered-ladder CC-SWS is able to provide a sat-uration output power of more than 1000 W in the frequency range of 91-96GHz, and the maximum saturated output power can reach 1125W at 94 GHz. Secondly, the CC-SWS is fabricated by the high-precision CNC milling and fixed in a nonmagnetic stainless steel housing. Test results of the fab-ricated CC-SWS with couplers and RF-windows are presented, showing the S11 < -10 dB in the frequency range of 90GHz to 100GHz. Therefore, the three-slot-staggered-ladder CC-SWS is a promising slow wave circuit of high power W-band TWT.
