Abstract :
This paper discusses analytical and experimental results of a study on streamer formation, discharge waveforms, and RF noise levels. Measurements disclose typical pulse parameters as follows: rise time = 20 ns, discharge time = 80 ns, and pulsewidth < 600 ns (dependent upon test sample). A mathematical model is developed to represent electric field strength in the vicinity of the streamer with supporting measured values.
