Abstract

We first provide a brief review of the assumptions and approximations involved in H. S. Uhm's recent theory of current modulation in klystron amplifiers. We next employ this theory to obtain a solution to a cubic equation that approximates the klystron drift distance to the point of maximum current modulation, and also to obtain the corresponding current modulation amplitude in terms of relevant klystron parameters.
