Pulse-excited electromagnetic processes in three-dimensional rod structures
Abstract
Gonschorek (1980) has discussed the calculation of the electromagnetic response to an electromagnetic pulse (EMP) in the case of three-dimensional structures involving slender electrodes. Concepts developed by Gonschorek are utilized as a basis in the present investigation. The moment methods considered by Harrington (1967, 1968) provide the theoretical background for the current study. Attention is given to the theoretical foundations for the current study. Attention is given to the theoretical foundations for the computation of electromagnetic harmonic processes in the considered structures, the calculation of transient electromagnetic processes via an inverse Fourier transformation, approaches for reducing the time of computation, and an application of the described computational procedure to the numerical calculation of the transient electromagnetic behavior in a number of examples. Numerical and experimental studies of EMP test antennas are conducted, and the incidence of planar pulse electromagnetic fields is considered. The radiation field related to imposed currents is also examined.
