Two different types of coupled planar helix structures with straight-edge connections (PH-SECs), namely, an unconnected pair and a coaxial pair of planar helices, are proposed and analyzed in the context of application in millimeter-wave traveling-wave tubes. It is shown that the nature of the propa...
