Abstract [eng] This paper presents the up to date situation on the field of powerful microwave frequency multipliers. It is shown that the most prospective for effective frequency multiplication are the cascade magnetronic multipliers. They not only have high gain and efficiency but also sufficiently broad frequency band. Experimental data submitted in this paper confirm this assertion: the output power of the multiplier, working on the 4-th harmonic in the range of 10 cm wavelength, is 430 W; it has gain 23 dB, electronic efficiency 52% and frequency band 15% with linear frequency characteristic. Only relativistic microwave devices working on the principle of the cyclotron resonance maser, such as gyrotron and peniotron, have the similar characteristics. But their structure and feeding are much more complicated.
