Circuit for power pulse amplitude stabilization in radar transmitter pulse modulator or the like

摘要

A pulse modulator for a radar system employing resonant charging of a pulse forming network and circuits for periodically discharging the network to form a power pulse applied to a microwave transmitter such as a magnetron, for example. The system includes circuits for controlling the pulse forming network charge effective at a time ahead of the discharging of the network, thereby to stabilize (regulate) the power pulse amplitude. The circuits shown provide for introduction of an increment of charge current independently of the resonant charging current of a magnitude determined by evaluation of the pulse forming network terminal voltage.
