Flexible Solid State High Power Radio Frequency Pulsed Source

During the course of this proposed Phase II program, Metamagnetics Inc. will continue the efforts toward development of a compact solid-state High Power Radio-Frequency (HPRF) source by building upon the results obtained from our Phase I effort, whereby a proof-of-feasibility demonstration of an innovative c (NLTL) for the generation of HPRF signals was achieved.This proposed system will be capable of generating arbitrary waveforms from the VHF to S-band band and delivering a minimum RF power of 10 MW at a rep-rate of 1 kHz. The development of such a system addresses the Navys requirement for a flexible and efficient high-power microwave (HPM) test capability system.In evaluating system performance, Metamagnetics Inc. will coordinate with Government and Industry partners. These synergistic activities will enable the development of a complete HPRF system with each performer contributing their unique expertise and capabilities.
