  • Abstract
    Compact and lightweight, microwave amplifiers are increasingly needed for mobile Mil-Satcom communication requirements as well as compact radar applications. L-3 communications electron devices has developed a high performance low noise TWT for use in a microwave power module (MPM) with CW output powers of 200 watts in the 13-16 GHz communication band.
