Abstract Resent study [Z. Huang et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 10⁹, 204801 (2012)] shows that the transverse-gradient undu-lator (TGU) together with electron beams with constant dispersion can reduce the sensitivity to energy spread for FEL. In this study, we numerically study FEL using TGU with external focusing. In spite of the dispersion varia-tion, through parameter optimization, FEL using TGU with TGU achieves similar radiation to that without ex-ternal focusing. To achieve a high energy exaction effi-ciency, the initial dispersion should be set with a shift from that corresponding to the resonant condition, and a variation of the transverse gradient in different undulator section is preferred. Other approaches, such as tapering and detuning frequency control, are also discussed to further improve the radiation power and are demonstrated with global parametric optimizations base on simulation.
