Abstract

A self-consistent analysis of the gyrotron traveling-wave amplifier is performed using a single particle theory and an exact transmission-line field analysis to yield a nonlinear large signal theory able to describe the effects of tapered, nonideal wall waveguides and tapered dc magnetic fields. Guiding center drift is considered, as well as efficiency as a function of input power, RF detuning, de detuning, current, and beam size.
