Abstract
High-power microwave radiation has been generated using a relativistic backward wave oscillator (BWO) powered by a high voltage source comprising an inductive energy storage and an electric-explosion current switch. The high voltage source and the BWO magnetic system are energy pumped by explosive magnetocumulative generators. In experiments, the proposed setup generated 30-ns single-mode radiation pulses with a carrier frequency of 3.6 GHz at an output power of 0.75 GW.
