چکیده

Introduction At high magnetic field strengths, travelling wave MRI can be used to solve the standing wave problem of volume resonators [1]. However, travelling wave MRI suffers from electromagnetic field-attenuation and high whole body energy deposition (SAR), so that only the distal parts of the body can be imaged. In this work we introduce a new travelling wave RF coil. The coil guides the travelling wave to any desired region in the body and thus limits the whole-body SAR. For wave guidance, a coaxial RF structure is designed, which utilizes a central gap to illuminate the target region.

Second Harmonic Reduction of Traveling Wave Tube Amplifier Using Ferrite Material

Traveling Wave Tubes (TWTs) consist of different elements. The most important element of TWT is the RF circuit. RF circuits in helix TWTs need a dielectric support to hold the helix; this support also has an effect in electromagnetic properties of RF circuits. A novel dielectric support is proposed to reduce the second harmonic of helix TWTs. The dielectric support in this structure consists of...
