I. Introduction
Parallel to the international research on high-altitude electromagnetic pulse (HEMP) effects and protection techniques, HEMP research has also received a great attention in the past decades in China. In technical journals published in Chinese language, such as High Voltage Engineering, Chinese Journal of Radio Science, and High Power Laser and Particle Beams, technical papers in this area can be frequently found. This paper gives a review of the academic research works and some new progresses based on a literature survey. The main contents are divided into four parts.
