Traveling wave tubes play a crucial role in fields like communication and broadcasting. Planar slow wave structure traveling wave tubes can settle the power limitation caused by the size reduction in traditional cylindrical-beam traveling wave tubes. Therefore, there are increasingly more researchers contributing to the development of planar slow wave structure traveling wave tubes. As a competitive candidate for 5G/6G communication, planar slow wave structure traveling wave tubes are attracting a lot of attention. Yet there has not yet been a book which specifically introduces the key points in the development of such a device, this is that book. Readers will learn how planar slow wave structure traveling wave tubes work and how to design wideband, high efficiency, miniature millimeter wave and terahertz wave amplifiers.
