Abstract :
This paper presents an overview of the key high-power microwave (HPM) narrow-band source technologies and their related HPM open-area radio-frequency (RF) test capabilities within four European counties (France, Germany, Sweden, and the U.K.). The test facilities are described and a brief description of further developments is given covering both power limitations and recent research interests.
