Review of Literature on High Power Microwave Pulse Biological Effects

Abstract

Biological effects of pulsed-modulated microwave radiation published in the open scientific literature and unclassified technical reports are reviewed. The effects of short exposures to unmodulated microwaves are included for their possible relevance to exposure to high peak power exposures.
