Abstract

A new type of a waveguide reflector is discussed. Its operating principle is based on the effect of resonant reflection of a wave from a cavity when there is coupling between the wave and an eigenmode of the cavity. The resonant reflectors are very attractive for the use in microwave systems of free electron masers due to their high reflection coefficients and narrow frequency bands at comparatively short lengths. Results of calculations and measurements of some resonant reflectors and a microwave system for KA-band cyclotron autoresonance masers are presented.
