Diffraction Effects in Measurements of Characteristics of High-Power Microwave Pulses with Wide-Aperture Liquid Calorimeters

  • Published:
Russian Physics Journal Aims and scope

Numerical nonstationary simulation of diffraction by a quasi-plane three-layer wide-aperture absorbing loads of liquid calorimeters intended for measuring the energy of high-power microwave radiation pulses is performed using the electromagnetic code KARAT with application to the S-band. It is shown that these effects can cause significant distortion of the microwave pulse shape behind the load as well as underestimation of the measured energy by 10–20%.
