Analysis of a Simulated Source of Electromagnetic Pulses.

Abstract

This thesis describes an effort to develop a source of plane wave electromagnetic pulses for use in an experiment which was designed to measure the electromagnetic field strength across an axial slot in an infinite circular cylinder. Two approaches are described. One design approach attempted to simulate magnetic line source with an array of small current loops. The second approach attempted to simulate a magnetic line source with an array of long monopoles. It was concluded that a source of plane wave pulses could be constructed, but not without degradation in rise time. (Author)
