Abstract

This article presents a work on development of a high-power radio pulse generator, which is a gyromagnetic nonlinear transmission line (GNLTL) in which periodically placed NiZn ferrites are saturated by an axial magnetic field produced by permanent magnets periodically placed inside the transmission line. Structurally, the line is a corrugated coaxial waveguide with permanent NdFeB magnets placed inside the inner conductor of the line. The transmission line geometry was optimized using numerical simulation by finite-difference time domain (FDTD) method. The excitation of high-frequency oscillations in the developed transmission line at central frequency of 1 GHz and above is shown experimentally using ferrite rings with 45 and 28 mm outer and inner diameters. The maximum peak power of microwave oscillations obtained in the experiments is 110 MW at the central frequency 1.3 GHz. The obtained RF power is comparable to that of more common GNLTL with continuous filling by ferrite rings having the same transverse size.
