Description

Construct a Vertical Electro-Magnetic Pulse Simulator, Naval Air Station, Patuxent River, Maryland. Also referred to as the Vertical Polarized Bounded Wave Simulator, it shall be large enough to test 747 sized aircrafts. The simulator is used to test the vulnerability of electronic systems to the electromagnetic pulse (EMP) produced by a high altitude nuclear burst by subjecting the systems to a simulated EMP environment. The EMP environment is created using a complex array of horizontal and vertical wires which extend hundreds of feet from a single initiation point. Horizontal wires will be installed within an expansive system of specialized cast-in-place conductive concrete specified by the Government. This antenna is comprised of a ground plane that will act as the bottom plate of the antenna, supporting test aircraft on a conductive concrete ground plane with embedded antenna leads. The top plate of the antenna includes the aboveground antenna cabling and supporting poles with their associated lightening protection and airfield safety lighting. A small shelter will house the VEMP generator, which will send current through the top and bottom plates, thereby enveloping a test object in simulated nuclear conditions.
