APPLICATION VALUE OF SLOW DECAY BEHAVIOR OF ENERGY DENSITY EXCITED BY ELECTROMAGNETIC PULSES

Abstract

By comparing the radiated energy densities excited by the continuous wave (CW), the sinusoidal pulse, the Gaussian pulse and the rectangular pulse respectively with the same energy, it is shown that the pulses are not more efficient than CW in the energy transmission. For the sinusoidal pulse and the CW, the radiated energy densities are the same in far zone. The radiated energy density of the Gaussian pulse is equal to the one of CW in far zone when the pulse width equals 1/2π of the CW′s period T0. The energy transmission of pulse is more efficient only in the case of τ <T0/2π. For the rectangular pulse, the radiated energy density is equal to the one of CW in far zone when the maximum of frequency spectrum is 10f0 (f0=1/T0) and the pulse width is T0. The numerical results and theoretical analysis in this paper show that the application value of the slow decay behavior of the energy density excited by electromagnetic pulses is limited.
