Overview

This development tests a high-power RF solid-state amplifier in a high-performance environment, indicating potential improvements in RF systems.

Key Points

  • The aim is to evaluate components of a high-power RF solid-state amplifier system operating at 805 MHz.
  • Developed a high-power RF test facility at LANSCE
  • Combined multiple HEMT amplifier modules for a total output of 1.25 MW
  • Used a 100 V DC supply stabilized by a 0.1 F capacitor bank
  • Implemented water cooling to handle thermal loads
  • Established integrated protection procedures for safe operation
  • Successfully supported transient power demands with the capacitor bank
  • Demonstrated enhanced reliability and modularity of the SSA system
  • Achieved stable operation under high duty-factor pulsed conditions
