Abstract :
By comparing the travelling-wave gyrotron with the conventional travelling-wave tube, it is shown that the gyrotron interaction mechanism can be described using Pierce-type parameters. These parameters are subsequently employed to highlight some gain and frequency characteristics of the travelling-wave gyrotron, attention being focused particularly on harmonic operation.
