Abstract :
Following an analysis of TEM structures, a brief discussion of the transient sources used is given, and a review of the biconic properties outlined. The effect of resistive loading is then considered. Next, some successful designs of planar fin and planar horn antennas radiating fast transient pulsed fields are presented. Finally, arrays of such horns are considered
