Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent the deterioration of a transmitted signal due to the discharge by applying periodically the overcurrent with a command signal except for a signal transmission period and performing the artificial discharge to prevent the easy discharge for a fixed period. CONSTITUTION:A high voltage power supply 4 contains the high voltage transformers 5, 6 and 7 to generate the cathode voltage, the collector voltage and the anode voltage respectively. The switches 1A-1C are provided at the primary sides of transformers 5-7 and then driven by the command control signals received from a command terminal 9. Thus the transformers 5-7 are dropped by 1 tap and the overvoltage higher than the operating voltage is applied to each electrode. A power circuit is set in an overload state by the overvoltage and therefore the stress is also increased to a traveling wave amplifier. When a fixed level of energy is supplied for a short time, a control signal is sent to a low voltage circuit 3 from a protection circuit 8 via a control terminal 10 so that the overvoltage is set again at its original level. As a result, the impurities attached to each electrode are blown away and the breakdown strength is improved.

Conventionally, this type of TWT power supply has a low-voltage radio wave circuit 3, a high-voltage transformer for cand 5',
A specified high voltage was supplied to each electrode such as the cathode, collector, and anode of TWT 2 by a high voltage radio circuit 4' having a high voltage transformer 6' for the collector and a high voltage transformer 7' for the anode. [Problems to be Solved by the Invention] The above-described conventional TWT power supply may cause discharge due to a decrease in the withstand voltage between the electrodes in the TWT tube.

This drop in breakdown voltage may be caused by impurities adhering to the electrodes, but in conventional TWT power supplies, the supply voltage of each high-voltage power supply is a fixed voltage, so it is necessary to change the high-voltage voltage on a trial basis to make the impurities fly away. The drawback was that it was not possible to perform certain actions. Therefore, there is a drawback that this discharge causes temporary signal deterioration.

The embodiment shown in FIG. 1 is comprised of a high voltage power supply circuit 4 that supplies high voltage to each of the anode, collector and cathode electrodes of the TWT 2, and a low voltage power supply circuit 3 that inputs a low voltage to the high voltage power supply circuit 4. Here, in the high voltage power supply 4, there is a high voltage transformer 5 that generates high voltages such as a voltage, a collector voltage, and an anode voltage.

It is possible to lower the IC by one tap and apply an overvoltage higher than the operating voltage to each electrode. This overvoltage causes the power supply circuit to be overloaded, and the stress on the TWT 2 also increases. When such constant energy is supplied to the TWT for a short time, a control signal is sent from the protection circuit 8 via the control terminal 10 in order to restore the overvoltage to the low voltage power supply circuit 3. The TWT to which an overvoltage is temporarily applied by the present power supply circuit in this way is discharged, impurities attached between each electrode are blown away, and the withstand voltage can be increased.
