Abstract :
High-voltage generator of wideband pulses with amplitude up to 20 kV on the generator output and pulse repetition frequency up to 104 pls/s has been created. The pulses can be radiated with help of different radiators: TEM-horn, spiral antenna, V-antenna and others. The generator is implemented on the base of pulsed transformer with short transient response. Primary (in low-voltage circuit) switching is carried out with help of IGBT-transistors. High-voltage nanosecond switching is carried out by air multigap multichannel spark discharger.
