Since 1988, R&D of the X-band klystron in KEK has been carried out, and in this R&D program the two types of the X-band klystrons has been designed and tested (REF-1,2,3). The first one is the 30MW class klystron named XB-50k. This rather moderate peak power klystron was designed as the first step to the 100MW class klystron, and in 1992, could achieve 26MW peak power successfully. This XB-50k{number_sign}1a had supplied the RF power to the first X-band accelerating structure high power test in autumn of 1992. The second klystron named XB-72k in this R&D program, was designed as the first 100MW class klystron which could fulfill the minimum power requirement for the RF power source of the X-band linac in the next generation of several hundreds GeV electron positron linear colliders. The first XB-72k{number_sign}1 was tested in 1992 and 1993, and successfully achieved the peak spring and also achieved 95MW. In order to verify the technological feasibility of the conventional klystron power system as the possible candidate of the future X-band linear collider, the prototype RF power system including the RF pulse compression scheme and the modulator is discussed. {copyright} {ital 1995} {ital American} {ital Institute} {ital of} {ital Physics}.
