Abstract
This paper designs a large diameter backward wave oscillator (LD-BWO) operating at 24 GHz high power microwaves without decreasing D. eventhough the physical processes involved in the MWCGs are complicated. This paper finds that there exists a starting energy in addition to starting current in electron beam for initiating microwave oscillation, if the finite length L of slow wave structure (SWS) is taken into account. As a result, it was found that the intensity of output radiation from the designed LB-BWO is expected to be weak, because of small h. However, the output can be drastically enhanced, in the case that the coupling of the radiation with anomalous Doppler electron cyclotron resonance exists.
