  • Abstract
    This paper discusses current and emerging technologies of several types of sources and radiating systems for narrow, moderate, ultra-moderate and hyper-band (band ratio greater than a decade) high-power electromagnetic signals. On the other hand, it is a polemic advocating the view that the 21st century call for a new paradigm for weapons technology and that nonlethal weapons (NLW) are going to play an increasingly important role in combat and civil conflicts in the coming years.
