HIGH-POWER MICROWAVE GENERATOR FOR EMITTING SHORT PULSES, ITS USE IN AN ARRAY AND ARRAY COMPRISING SUCH MICROWAVE GENERATORS
An array comprising microwave generators (12) for HPM pulse emissions produces, for increased remote control by means of improved focusing of the resultant emission characteristic, precise discharge currents, which occur at the same time, of their resonators (11) or, for the purpose of pivoting the resultant emission characteristic, a temporal offset of the discharge currents which can be controlled more precisely if base modules (10) are used for this purpose which are each equipped with a dedicated Marx generator (26) which can be triggered externally and preferably optically.

A plate-shaped reflector (12), which is equipped with a dielectric body (13), according to its dielectric constant and the relation to the remaining air path in front of the plate (12), results in structures which are smaller in size and, with the same distance between the antenna elements, in a higher antenna gain given an improved directional characteristic. A topography in the form an equilateral triangle of the dielectric body (13) brings about a transformation of the protruding ridge into an imaginary angle reflector having a reduced vertex angle behind the plate (12) with a correspondingly enlarged fictitious distance between the antennas. The space requirement for a microwave generator (11) emitting sinusoidal oscillations damped, for example, via its integrated antenna for a short period of time can therefore be significantly reduced, even with an increased antenna gain.
H01Q 15/23 - Combinations of reflecting surfaces with refracting or diffracting devices
H01Q 19/10 - Combinations of primary active antenna elements and units with secondary devices, e.g. with quasi-optical devices, for giving the antenna a desired directional characteristic using reflecting surfaces
A vibrometer (1, 23) is provided, which comprises a radiation source (e.g. 2) for coherent radiation, a beam splitter (4) for decomposing the output beam (13) of the radiation source (e.g. 2) into a measurement beam (14) for observing a vibrating object (17) and into a reference beam (15), a beam guiding device for superposing the measurement beam (18) returning from the vibrating object (17) with the reference beam (15), and a detector (10) for time-resolved and/or position-resolved recording of the superposition patterns. In this case, a micromirror grid (8) arranged in the beam path of the returning measurement beam (18), a receiving optical means (7) for imaging the vibrating object (17) onto the micromirror grid (8) and an imaging optical means (9) for imaging the micromirror grid (8) onto the detector (10) are provided. The imaging vibrometer (1, 23) is distinguished by a short measurement time. Furthermore, a method for producing a vibration image of the vibrating object (17) and also the use of the vibrometer (1, 23) are stated.
A jettisonable nosecone (10) for a missile is specified, which nosecone (10) is longitudinally split into at least two parts (15, 16) and is held together by detachable connecting structures, in which case the connecting structures are designed to actively move the at least two parts (15, 16) away from one another when released. A missile having a correspondingly designed nosecone (10) is also provided. A nosecone (10) of this type allows simple jettisoning during every flight phase of the missile, and is also suitable for retrofitting to an already existing missile.
A microwave generator having a central electrode (14) which at the front end has a radiating element (22) and an external electrode (18) which coaxially surrounds the central electrode (14) along an axially extending resonator portion (16), wherein the two electrodes (14 and 18) are of a rotationally symmetrical configuration and define a spark gap (62) which sparks across when a high voltage is applied and radiates microwaves by way of the resonator portion (16) and the radiating element (22) of the central electrode (14). The spark gap (62) is in the form of an annular spark gap, which is determined by a connection element (26) which projects at the rear end axially centrally away from the central electrode (14) and an annular edge (44) of the external electrode (18), the edge being provided coaxially with respect to the connection element (26). The central electrode (14) and the external electrode (18) are arranged in a housing sleeve (12) of an electrically insulating material. The housing sleeve (12) preferably has an extension (58) defining a space (56) in which there is arranged a high voltage source (30), which is electrically conductively connected to the electrodes (14 and 18) of the microwave generator (10)
The invention concerns a microwave generator comprising at least one resonator consisting of two opposite resonator electrodes which are separated by a gap-protector whereof the breakdown is triggered by application of a high voltage. The invention is characterized in that the resonator electrodes (4, 5) are configured in the region of the gap-protector (8) so as to form a two-dimensional or three-dimensional section having a substantially constant minimum interelectrode distance (d3)
Disclosed is a multimodal explosive, especially for blast charges, comprising a powder additive for increasing the power. Said powder additive is formed by a hydrogen-terminated monocrystalline silicon powder which is provided with at least one grain size range and has the advantage that no oxidation phenomenon occurs even after many years, and even when the explosive is stored in ambient air. Advantageously, the powder additive immediately reacts along with the explosive in the detonation front due to the non-oxidized crystal surfaces, said joint reaction lasting until the post-reaction period as the crystal sizes increase such that a different propellant force is obtained according to the additive used.
C06B 33/08 - Compositions containing particulate metal, alloy, boron, silicon, selenium or tellurium with at least one oxygen supplying material which is either a metal oxide or a salt, organic or inorganic, capable of yielding a metal oxide with a nitrated organic compound
A floatable smoke pot which floats in a stable position with a casing can water-tightly closed by a cover through a closure device. Smoke-generating bodies of a pyrotechnic material, which can be ignited by an igniting device, are arranged in the casing can. A stable floating position is achieve through a ballast weight in the casing can at the can bottom (14). A number of column elements forming the smoke-generating bodies are arranged in the casing can in a uniformly distributed relationship, standing on the ballast weight. The space which remains free of the column elements in the casing can is filled with a buoyancy material. The cover has holes which in the unused original condition of the smoke pot are water-tightly closed with closure elements which can be torn open so that the smoke pot can also be submerged in water for a limited time without extinguishing of the smoke-generating bodies.
