Abstract :
A 10 watts CW oscillator in Ku-band has been developed, using six high efficiency GaAs IMPATT diodes. The diodes are associated in pairs and push-pull operated in three combining modules coupled to a cylindrical cavity. 20% efficiency with a nearly 100% combining efficiency has been obtained.
