Abstract :
A double comb rectangular waveguide slow-wave structure with a cylindrical beam channel was proposed as the slow-wave structure (SWS) circuit of a wideband tunable backward wave oscillator (BWO). The output power and oscillation frequency were performed by the particle-in-cell (PIC) simulation.
