High-power ultrawideband radiation source

摘要: The article presents a source producing high-power ultrawideband electromagnetic pulses. includes generator of monopolar pulses, bipolar pulse former, and combined transmitting antenna. Monopolar 150-kV, 4.5-ns pulses are transformed into 120-kV, 1-ns which emitted by the repetition rate setup is up to 100 Hz. peak power 170 MW as measured with TEM-type receiving antenna having 0.2-2 GHz passband. pattern width at half-level 90° 105° for H- E-planes, respectively. electric field strength 4 m from in direction main radiation maximum 34 kV/m.
