Abstract
In the presented study, we consider several methods to measure high-voltage, nanosecond-duration electrical pulses, and their implementation for understanding the applied voltage, current, incident, reflected, and power at a load. We examine different probes for the most common transmission line types used in high-voltage pulser’s output, present their strengths and weaknesses, and give recommendations for their use. Special attention was given to the back current shunt and its properties. This method allows scientists and researchers to directly observe the voltage profile in real-time and may find broader use in pulsed power and plasma applications.
