Abstract
Current modulation on an electron beam, including the effects of charge overtaking, harmonics, and intermodulation products, may be calculated exactly in a one-dimensional geometry once the electron orbit is given. This paper provides a simple proof together with a numerical example in a model that is commonly used in the klystron literature.
