BEAM-TYPE PARAMETRIC AMPLIFIER
Abstract
The study concerns degenerate parametric amplification of 5-kmc signals with 10-kmc pumping, and non-degenerate parametric amplification of 5-kmc signals with 35-kmc pumping (30-kmc idler). Pump circuit study results are discussed and the advantages of using the quadrifilar helix as the pump circuit are summarized. To make comparison of different types of pump circuits possible, a Pierce impedance definition for the pump circuit is discussed in connection with pump gain calculations. Study results of the coupler characteristics are described. For the voltagetuned operation, several possible modes of operation are described and the advantages and disadvantages of each are discussed. (Author)
