Abstract
Sources of high-power ultra-wideband electromagnetic pulses of nanosecond duration are described. A bipolar voltage pulse with a length of 0.5 ns and an amplitude of ∼200 kV is fed to the input of a radiating system (a 16-element array antenna or a single antenna). The values of the effective radiation potential E p R = 260 kV for a source with a single antenna and E p R = 690 kV for a source with a 16-element antenna array were obtained at a pulse repetition frequency of 100 Hz.
