Abstract :
In 2009 the Center for Physical and Power Electronics at the University of Missouri-Columbia began to construct a facility to enable scaled tests using both low power and high power, pulsed and continuous radio frequency and microwave energy. This facility has been online since early 2010 and has been used to perform advanced tests on antennas and electronics. We are continuing to expand its capabilities both at low power and high power using HPM sources.
