Abstract
A printed planar helix with straight-edge connections incorporating a coplanar waveguide feed and an air tunnel has been designed for traveling-wave tube applications. Cold parameters have been simulated using CST Microwave Studio. The simulated S-parameters and phase velocity values agree well with the measured results.
