Abstract :
Uses a general theory of interaction of a relativistic electron beam (REB) with a field of modes E01 of an irregular waveguide. On the basis of this theory we obtain the one-dimensional self-consistent nonlinear equations of relativistic Cherenkov oscillators: reflecting travelling wave tubes (RTWT) and backward-wave oscillators (BWO). Then by partly optimizing parameters and profiles of regular or irregular corrugated waveguides the high-efficiency variants of oscillators are found
