  • Abstract
    This paper reports the design considerations, simulation results, and test results of an S-band 70-MHz-instantaneous-bandwidth 50-kW-average-power klystron, which was developed by the Institute of Electronics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, from January 2004 to August 2007. The typical result is a 50-kW average output power with an 89-mus RF pulsewidth and a 300-Hz repetition rate during 8 h of continuous reliability testing. A cracked output window is also discussed.
