Abstract

The superimposition of the microwave fields of an array (10) of microwave generators (11), with self-firing spark gaps (13) for the discharge of storage devices (43), which are charged up to a high voltage, results in an increase in field strength and a capacity for influencing the frequency spectrum of the emitted high-energy high-frequency field and the emission direction thereof.
