SAPIENS Memo 8: Electromagnetic properties of the EMP simulator SAPIENS
Abstract
The electric and the magnetic fields were measured inside as well as outside an electromagnetic pulse simulator. The measurements confirm the good quality of the simulator design regarding antenna bandwidth, field impedance, homogeneity, polarization, and the effect of the termination field amplitude in the operation volume is 7% lower than the expected value, due to damping between the support structure and the antenna. Radiation diagrams describing the field outside the simulator are presented.
