Based on the Werthamer model (Phys. Rev. /bold 147/, 255 (1966)) we investigate the current-voltage characteristic of Josephson tunnel junctions irradiated by a microwave. Within the first harmonic approximation we derive relations for the constant-voltage steps and the corresponding stability conditions. The results are compared with investigations in the frame of the Stewart--McCumber model. (Appl. Phys. /bold 12/, 277 (1968); J. Appl. Phys. /bold 39/, 3113 (1968)).
