Abstract
A power multiplier and method are provided. The power multiplier includes a power multiplying network that is a multiply-connected, velocity inhibiting circuit constructed from a number of lumped-elements. The power multiplier also includes a launching network, and a directional coupler that couples the launching network to the power multiplying network. The power multiplier provides for power multiplication at nominal power generation frequencies such as 50 Hertz, 60 Hertz, and other power frequencies, in a compact circuit.
Claims52
A power multiplier, comprising:
- a power multiplying network comprising a multiply-connected, velocity inhibiting circuit constructed from a number of lumped-elements;
- a launching network;
- and
- a directional coupler coupling the launching network to the power multiplying network.
A power multiplier, comprising:
- a power multiplying network comprising a multiply-connected, velocity inhibiting circuit constructed from a number of lumped-elements;
- means for coupling a traveling wave into the power multiplying network;
- and
- means for diverting the traveling wave from the power multiplying network to a load.
A method for multiplying power, comprising the step of:
- directionally propagating a traveling wave within a power multiplying network that comprises a multiply-connected, velocity inhibiting circuit constructed from a number of lumped elements.
