[en] An analysis of a hydrogen maser working with an unusual TE111 mode is presented. Different simulations have been carried out and are compared with preliminary results obtained for such a maser. In contrast to standard hydrogen maser that exploits the TE011 mode, the TE111 mode allows one to design hydrogen masers with significant reduced dimensions which represents a huge benefit for space applications and in particular for the global positioning system.
