Title:
METHOD AND APPARATUS PERTAINING TO INTERLACED AMPLITUDE PULSING USING A HARD-TUBE TYPE PULSE GENERATOR
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2011/156393
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
These various embodiments serve to facilitate interlaced amplitude pulsing using a hard-tube type pulse generator having at least one energy-storage unit each comprising at least one energy-storing capacitor. Generally speaking, this comprises controlling an amount of energy withdrawn from the energy-storage unit and provided to an output load to form productive electric pulses by controlling at least one of: (1) energy replenishment; and (2) non-productive energy withdrawal of the energy-storage unit, to thereby achieve a series of productive interlaced amplitude electric pulses.
