Modern warfare requires high levels of microwave power for various applications. Semiconductors are only suitable for low and medium power levels, for high power generation microwave tubes are still the most effective solution.
The feasibility of high power levels is mainly dependent on technology. The topics are given below:
- Tube type
- Tube design
- Electron beam
- Efficiency & cooling
- Operating voltage
- Energy storage
The reliability requirements are strongly related to the modes of operation.
