Abstract

In this paper the principal problems and further direction of the development of continuous interaction microwave tubes are presented. TWT’s BWO’s of «O» and «M»-type, amplitron, stabilitron and other are considered. For the nearest future the principal problems of microwave tube development are the following: power rise, frequency operation increase, working band and electronic turning band extensions, a rise of the efficiency, noise level decrease, a reduce of tube dimensions and weight. From the competition ability that electronic microwave tubes will remain their main part where high power and large band devices are needed.
