Study of multipaction breakdown margins in the output connector of a travelling-wave tube (TWT) is essential for application in satellite-borne systems. A TWT uses a coaxial ceramic window, a coaxial output coupler and / or a waveguide output coupler that are prone to multipaction breakdown boosted by high RF power due to the ion accumulation in critical regions during the transition of the satellite through plasma pockets in space. A detailed procedure for estimating the multipaction susceptibility margins in a TWT using CST studio and analytical equations is presented in this paper, and output couplers of two typical TWTs are analysed and the results are presented.

Metadata only record ; This program, funded by USAID and managed by Virginia Tech in the Office of International Research, Education and Development, applies research and development of sustainable agriculture and natural resource management. The SANREM CRSP sponsors long-term research in five areas in over ten countries in Latin America, Asia and Africa. Partners range from universities, governmental organizations, corporate partners and Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs). In addition, this project has been supported by the Soil and Water Conservation Society (SWCS). This resource links the work of the SANREM CRSP and SWCS projects, to allow for opportunities for future collaboration. ; ME (Management Entity)
