The role of numerical optimization has been continuously growing in the design of high-
frequency structures, including microwave and antenna components. At the same time …

We explore a novel concept for pulse compression scheme applicable at RF, microwave,
and possibly up to optical frequencies based on structured energy distribution in cavities …

This paper proposes and describes in detail a new approach to the design of very compact
active microwave compressors capable of providing rectangular pulses of up to 100 ns. The …

Electromagnetic (EM)-driven optimization is an important part of microwave design,
especially for miniaturized components where the cross-coupling effects in tightly arranged …

A microwave pulse compressor (MPC) system formed by an inductive iris, a straight
rectangular waveguide, and an H-plane T-junction is experimentally studied. The MPC …

The microwave compressor of a new design forms high-power rectangular pulses of a
spatial length exceeding several folds the longitudinal dimension of a storage cavity. Similar …

High-frequency power amplifiers can be equipped with complementary pulse-compressor
systems to fulfill the advanced cavity power requirements. Microwave pulse compression is …

A custom waveguide dc break, developed for the versatile ECR for nuclear science
(VENUS) ion source at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, features an innovative …

A microwave pulse compressor (MPC) consisting of an iris, a straight waveguide section,
and a T-junction can be used in order to convert a long pulse with lower power to a shorter …

A gas discharge tube (GDT) switch operating in a MW-class microwave pulse compression
