| Abstract: | We propose a new type of microwave generator in which the Josephson junction is used as an active medium. We find the modulation instability in a soliton chain moving in the Josephson junction coupled with a retarding system. The development of this instability leads to wave amplification in the transmission line. This effect is similar to that of grouping in BWT and TWT and results in the effective transformation of the soliton energy into the microwave radiation energy.Institute of Applied Physics, Russian Academy of Sciences, Nizhny Novgorod.
