Abstract :
The simulation study on the rhombus-shaped microstrip meander-line slow-wave structure for 140 GHz traveling-wave tube iSs presented. The electromagnetic characteristics and beam-wave interaction of this structure are calculated. From our calculations, it is predicted that this rhombus-shaped microstrip meander-line traveling-wave tube is capable of delivering tens of watts output power.
