Abstract :
A Distributed Source Conducting Medium Underground System (DISCUS) Simulator concept to provide both fast rise time and late time EMP excitation is presented. An early time module has been constructed and tested. Calculations of the electric and magnetic fields for this single prototype are compared with experimental measurements.
