Field Homogeneity and Quite Zone of India’s Largest EMP Facility

Electromagnetic Pulse (EMP) is a short burst of electromagnetic energy which can disrupt the electrical and electronic systems. This paper mainly focuses on Field Homogeneity and quite zone areas identification of India’s Largest Outdoor RS105, EMP Test Facility. Modeling & Simulation analysis of bounded wave EMP antenna was carried out to verify the field uniformity as per the standard. Simulated results are verified with practical results after commissioning the EMP facility to meet the compliance testing for RS105 as per the MIL standards with generated test levels more than 50 kV/m and covering the EUT test volume of 17m(L)X12m(W)X3m(H), sufficient to test the large defence and civilian systems.Quite Zone area has been marked as per ICNIRP guidelines after simulation and practical field survey measurements carried out around the facility.
