Abstract
A gas-filled test cell is used which accommodates the object under test and to which a pulse generator is connected. The test cell is constructed over its entire length as a coaxial line having a ribbon-shaped inner conductor and a round outer conductor. A ribbon-shaped potential plate connected to the outer conductor is arranged plane-parallel to the inner conductor inside the outer conductor at a distance corresponding to at least twice the height of the object under test. The distance is also longer than the shortest distance between the inner conductor and the outer conductor. The ratio between the sum of the width of the inner conductor and its thickness and the diameter of the outer conductor has been selected in such a manner that is between 0.4 and 0.9.
