Abstract :
Summary Form only given, as follows. The AAI High Power Microwave Source Development Program (HPM) has been actively investigating the design of HPM test systems using relativistic magnetrons with a repetition rate capability. The design and test of a gigawatt-level, S- to C-band, 10-Hz, mobile relativistic magnetron HPM system have been carried out. Mode competition, output-coupling-frequency scaling and injection phase locking in relativistic magnetrons have been studied. Advances in pulse power, antennas, and instrumentation have been made. A second generation mobile HPM system is being designed.<>
