Abstract

Equations of the multifrequency nonlinear theory of the traveling wave tube are derived using the fundamental frequency method. Basic results of the numerical calculation of the output parameters of a traveling wave tube operating in the multifrequency mode are presented. The level of sideband components in traveling wave tubes with uniform and nonuniform slow-wave structures and the way of suppression of sideband components are investigated.
