Abstract

The simple Pierce's theory for the interaction impedance of a helix in free-space is extended to the case of an inhomogeneously loaded helical structure of a TWT in order to estimate the quality of the latter from the “gain-frequency” consideration. The characteristic impedance, the impedance parameter and the gain-frequency response of the structure are compared with those of a homogeneously loaded helical structure.
