MICROWAVE POWER MODULES

A complete microwave amplifier, eachMicrowave Power Module (MPM) includes a mini helix Traveling Wave Tube (TWT), an optional Solid-State Amplifier (SSA) driver and a miniature power supply. Advancements in MPMs have led to the development of the NanoMPM®, a compact 5 in. x 3 in. model well-suited for airborne or groundapplications where size and weight are prime considerations. MPMs areused in unmanned aerial vehicles(UAVs), radar and ECM systems,portable and mobile SATCOM systems,and point-to-point communications.

HIGH-POWER KLYSTRONS AND LINEAR ACCELERATOR PRODUCTS

Since the development of the first 2.2-megawatt L-Band Klystron in 1952, L-3 Electron Devices has been a leader in support of the superpower radar community. Today, state-of-the-art Cluster Cavity klystrons provide the wideband multi-megawatt capability for the U.S. Air Force AWACS system.Other uses for high-power klystrons include weather radar, high-energy plasmaresearch applications, medical radiation therapy systems and linearaccelerator applications. Additionally, for linear accelerator applications,EDD offers high-energy magnetrons and electron emitters.

HELIXTRAVELING WAVE TUBES

We are widelyrecognized as anindustry leader in the design andmanufacture of high-powerpulsed, CW helix and ring-loop TWTs for radar, ECM and missile applications. These TWTs operate in thestandard bands over the 2 to 18 GHz frequency spectrum andprovide superior performance and reliability. Helix TWTs areused in ECM systems, missile data links and seekers, as wellas for medium-range radar applications.

Primarily used in ground-based or airborne radar applications,our coupled-cavity TWTs are available at power levels up to 60 kW peak, 5 kW of average power and10% bandwidth in X- andKu-Band.
