Microwave compression in superconducting cavities

Evaluations for possible using of superconducting materials in high power microwave generators based on the method of the resonant microwave compression were made. As an example the relationship between the power amplification factor and frequency was determined for superconducting rectangular cavities. Capabilities of superconducting cavities as energy accumulators were analyzed. Microwave power value required for feeding superconducting accumulator is estimated. Experimental results of storing and extracting the energy in superconducting cavities are presented.
