The Effects of Mode Impurity of Ka-band System PerformanceProblems associated with spurious mode generation in the proposed Ka-Band gyroklystron transmitter tube, overmoded transmission line, and feed are discussed. A brief description of the overall problem is presented. The theory used to evaluate feed and antenna performance when spurious modes are present is given. Results for feed patterns and overall antenna patterns for various levels and types of spurious modes are presented. Worst case antenna efficiency is calculated as a function of spurious mode level. Conclusions are drawn regarding the results of this study and their application to specifications on the transmitter tube and transmission line system.
