TEMPS (Transportable EMP Simulator) Final Report. Volume 1

Abstract

This report presents a description of the development, design, fabrication, and field testing of the TEMPS (Transportable EMP Simulator). The basic system is a simulator with the geometry of a cylinder parallel to the ground surface driven at its center by a high voltage capacitive pulser and terminated resistively at its ends to ground. The pulser and cylindrical antenna are supported by means of a dielectric support structure at elevations of up to 20 meters measured from the antenna/pulser centerline to ground. Essentially, TEMPS has three individual subsystems: the pulse generator, the cylindrical antenna, and the support structure.
