Vacuum tubes are widely used microwave devices in many applications such as radar and telecommunication. Electron gun is very important component of a vacuum device since it generates electron beam into the device to interact with electromagnetic waves. Electron gun structures vary according to application and type of vacuum device. In order to design and simulate electron gun, Particle in Cell codes which solves the problems with charged particle motion, are used. In this thesis, various types of electron gun for Travelling Wave Tube are investigated. First, Pierce gun parametrical simulation is performed by CST PS Tracking Solver. Effects of simulation parameters are compared with respect to beam current, perveance, beam waist radius and beam waist position. After Pierce gun simulation, electron guns having special usage are simulated and optimized according to Pierce gun results. In this simulation, Pinto-Xavier-Motta, dual anode and annular beam electron gun was constructed and simulated in CST PS and their electron beam characteristics are examined.

Wideband phase shifter for 6-18 Ghz applications
Boyacıoğlu, Gökhan; Demir, Şimşek; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2010)
Phase shifters are common microwave circuit devices, which are widely used in telecommunication and radar applications, microwave measurement systems, and many other industrial applications. They are key circuits of T/R modules and are used to form the main beam of the electronically scanned phase array antennas. Wideband operating range is an important criterion for EW applications. Hence, wideband performance of the phase shifter is also important. In this study, four wideband phase shifter circuits are d...
Analysis of the radiation from aparture/printed antennas in the presence of periodic structures through numerical and asymptotic techniques
Manara, Giuliano; Aydın Çivi, Hatice Özlem; Nepa, Paolo; Çetin, Ramazan(2010)
Proje kapsamında, yakınında saçıcıların bulunduğu elektriksel olarak büyük anten dizilerinin ışıma/saçınma problemini etkin bir şekilde analiz etmek için bir yöntem geliştirmek üzere çalışmalar yapılmıştır. Bu yöntem elektriksel olarak büyük dizilerin asimptotik ışın alan gösterimine ve dizi akımlarının Ayrık Fourier Dönüşüm ifadelerine dayanmaktadır. Gerçekçi anten dizilerinin üzerindeki akım dağılımının Ayrık Fourier Dönüşümünün, dizinin yakınında saçınmaya yol açabilecek nesneler olduğu durumda bile, bel...
True-time delay structures for microwave beamforming networks in S-band phased arrays
Temir, Kaan; Demir, Şimşek; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2013)
True time delay networks are one of the most critical structures of wideband phased-array antenna systems which are frequently used in self-protection and electronic warfare applications. In order to direct the main beam of a wideband phased-array antenna to the desired direction; phase values, which are linearly dependent to frequency, are essential. Due to the phase characteristics of the true-time delay networks, beam squint problems for broadband phased array systems are minimized. In this thesis, diffe...
Broadband spatial power combining in coaxial medium
Tanç, Zafer; Demir, Şimşek; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2012)
Microwave amplifiers having high output power are the essential components in many systems, such as radar and satellite communication. Although the structures generated by tube technologies fulfill the necessity of the required output power, the use of these amplifiers includes some critical drawbacks, one of which is the limited life of operation. Alternatively, solid-state amplifiers produced by transistor technology are preferred since they are high reliable devices. In order to provide the necessary out...
Efficient analysis of large array antennas
Ovalı, Fatih; Aydın Çivi, Hatice Özlem; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2004)
Large phased array antennas are widely used in many military and commercial applications. The analysis of large arrays containing many antenna or frequency-selective (FSS) surface elements is inefficient or intractable when brute force numerical methods are used. For the efficient analysis of such structures hybrid methods (analytic and numerical, numerical and numerical) can be used. In this thesis, a hybrid method combining the uniform geometrical theory of diffraction (UTD) and the moment method (MoM) us...
