Abstract :
Beam current of gyrotron was stabilized from 17 % to 0.5% by the feedback control to adjust the heater voltage of electron gun. The fluctuation level of output power was decreased from 15 % to 5 %. More effective stabilization of the output power up to 2% was attained by feedback control to adjust heater voltage.
