Abstract :
A magnetic pulse generator using a controlled rectifier in the charging circuit is capable of generating high-power pulses and is suitable as a radar modulator. In the discharge network saturable inductors operate as high-power switching devices and, together with the capacitors, reduce the duration of the current pulse from a long duration at the charging circuit to a short duration at the output.
