Abstract
We briefly analyze systems of successive resonance compression of microwave pulses and present the results of a study of resonance compression in a system of coupled resonators with energy output via interference switches. A power gain of about 18 dB was experimentally achieved in the 3 cm wavelength interval in a two-stage system with a superdimensional resonator in the first stage and a single-mode resonator in the second stage with output pulse duration of about 2.5 ns, peak power ∼3 MW, and efficiency ∼ 17 %.
