Abstract
This chapter presents the results of investigations of a 64-element array developed for radiation of directed ultra-wideband wave beams with multimegavolt effective potential. The array is excited from a 1-ns length bipolar pulse generator with the output impedance of 12.5 Ω. The total output impedance of a feeder system used for pulse distribution by the array elements is 0.78 Ω. The array aperture is 1.41 × 1.41 m. The peak power pattern FWHM in two orthogonal planes is 10º.
