Abstract
The authors describe some designs of X-band one- and two-cavity antenna-oscillators with semitransparent radiation apertures. The antennas are excited by Gunn-diode sources plus half-loop feeds. The power and radiation characteristics of one-, two-, and three-diode antenna-oscillators are described and compared. The experiments show that by using the field combining phenomenon in a single resonant cavity, a very high power efficiency is achieved.<>
