High power pulse transmission characteristics of UWB antennas

The high power pulse radiation of three types of antennas is presented. The primary source input for all the antennas is the generalized gaussian pulse (GGP) and the response of all these antennas is recorded. Each antenna has shown specific advantages of their own. A comparison is made between the antennas to allow us use all the antennas in their respective applications. The modifications need to be done to cater for the high voltage handling and to preserve the pulse characteristics is also discussed in this paper.
