A Power Supply Based on Air-Cored Tesla Transformer and Magnetic Compression Network for High Repetition Rate Test

An increasingly active area in pulsed power research is the development of pulse generators which are capable of providing pulses with high-voltage, high peak power at a high pulse repetition frequency (PRF). In order to test the behavior of both system components and load applications under continuous PRF operation, it is necessary to develop a testing supply that is able to generate pseudo PRF conditions. The double-pulse power supply that can generate two discrete high voltage pulses is one of widely used technical schemes.
