Abstract :
We report a theoretical study of mode coupling and power transfer in a coaxial sector taper. The power transferred from the TE/sub 01/ mode into other low lying modes is calculated as a function of taper length and operating frequency. This type waveguide taper is utilized to feed a wide band input coupler for a 35 GHz Gyrotron Traveling Wave Amplifier.
