Waveform Shaping Protocols for Targeted Electromagnetic Attacks

Abstract

The prospect of utilizing electromagnetic radiation to efficiently target and destroy sensitive electronic circuitry has been intensely pursued during the last years leading to a new class of weapons directed energy weapons (DEWs). DEWs are highly advantageous since they allow for non-lethal attacks at the speed of light, precise targeting, rapid engagement of multiple targets,adjustable damage capacity, and low operational cost.
