Abstract :
One of the inherent characteristics of the Voltage Tuned Magnetron is its capability of being electronically tuned over a wide range in frequency. It is informative to compare the VTM with M and O backward wave oscillators, which are also capable of wide electronic frequency tuning. The voltage-frequency characteristics, power-frequency characteristics, size, weight, and complexity, will be among the items compared.
