Abstract
A pulse generator includes a microwave source that delivers a pulsed signal into a resonant compression cavity equipped with a switching device for opening or closing the resonant compression cavity. The pulsed signal is stored in the resonant compression cavity when closed to be compressed therein before being delivered with a greater amplitude and a smaller width when the resonant compression cavity is open. The microwave source is of the amplifier type with an instantaneous bandwidth including the resonant frequency of the resonant compression cavity. The microwave source receives, at an input, an input signal to be amplified that is taken from the resonant compression cavity. Such a pulse generator can find particular application in high-power pulse generators.
