DSIAC Webinar: High Power, Radio Frequency, Microwave Directed Energy Weapon Effects

This webinar will introduce directed energy weapons (DEWs) and their effects specifically, highpower, radio frequency, microwave (HPM) DEWs. The presentation will cover what HPM weapons are, the types of weapons narrowband and wideband, how the weapons are similar to, but different from traditional electronic warfare (EW) and electromagnetic pulse (EMP), and how the HPM energy couples into a targets electronics and their effects. We will also cover some of the basic modeling and simulation tools for computing and estimating the probability of target failure as a function of weapon power density and range. Finally, we will show an example of how to determine hardening requirements for a notional helicopter against an HPM weapon. Connect with DSIAC online: Web, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn,
