Abstract
A 250-MW ultrawideband source capable of pulse repetition frequencies up to 10 kHz has been developed. This modular pulser utilizes state-of-the-art magnetic switch pulse compression and electromagnetic shock line pulse sharpening to produce highly reliable 3-ns pulses with risetimes of less than 200 ps. ERPs of up to 0.75 GW have been achieved using TEM (transverse electromagnetic) horns.<>
