| Summary: | The concept of the coaxial cascade-line rectangular-pulse generator is put forward, the basic idea of which is to cascade two coaxial lines of equal impedance together and make one line turn around to let the two lines use a common middle tube. The obvious feature of this kind of generator is that it can form a rectangular pulse with a width of 4 times the electrical length of one line. Compared with the conventional single-tube generator, the total stored energy is doubled. Namely, the output pulse width of the coaxial cascade-line generator is doubled for the same output voltage, which is beneficial for miniaturization. The principle of the cascade pulse forming line is first introduced; then the coaxial cascade-line rectangular-pulse generator is suggested. The simulation results prove the feasibility of the cascade-line generators. Finally, the design of a Tesla-type generator with an output power of 20 GW and a pulse width of 40 ns is presented based on the coaxial cascade-line method. |
