Abstract

System and method for applying microwave power of substantially constant frequency and variable power level to a work load. A microwave power source having an operating frequency which varies with power level is operated at a substantially constant power level and frequency. Power from the source is applied to a dummy load, and a portion of the power is diverted away from the dummy load to the work load to vary the amount of power applied to the work load without changing the power level or frequency at which the source is operated.
