Abstract: In order to overcome the key problems in the experimental study on microwave plasma thruster, of which the whole system operates under vacuum condition, and to remove the unnecessary energy loss, the microwave source of plasma thruster operated under atmosphere and vacuum condition was developed by applying the design technology of the nonlinear power supply, the integration of attenuator and detector, liquid cooling, after overcoming the gas breakdown problems of electro and microwave apparatus. The output and reflected power of the microwave source can be tested according to the magnetron anode current and detector output voltage. The test results of the developed microwave source show that the characteristics is improved, compared with existing device. The experimental studies demonstrate that the developed microwave source can operate under atmosphere and vacuum condition reliably.
