  • Abstract
    This paper presents the design and the performances of an embedded High-Power Microwave wideband (WB) / ultrawideband (UWB) source, developed and built at the French-German Research Institute of Saint-Louis. It is powered by an 11 stages, 400 kV, compact Marx generator with specificities in coaxial design and low energy. Each of the stages is fitted with two capacitors of 1.1 nF and a couple of charging inductors. The nominal charging voltage is about 40 kV; measured on a 50 ohm-resistive load, the rise time is lower than 10 ns.
