We build a phased array system with four power-variable phase-controlled magnetrons (PCMs) by applying the injection-locking method and phase-locked-loop method. To reduce the cost and ensure the durability of the phased array, a waveguide slot array antenna was designed and used for the output antenna of power-variable PCMs. The slot antenna has an expected angle deflection of 22.5°, a gain of 24.9 dBi, and the half bandwidth of the main lobe was 10°. We demonstrated the properties of microwave beamforming and wireless power transfer based on the magnetron phased array system. In horizontal directions, a beam scanning range of ±3° was obtained by adjusting the output phase of the magnetrons. Furthermore, the received dc power reaches 142 W at a distance of 5 m when the output microwave power of the magnetron phased array is 1304 W.
