    Calculation of the Combined Electric Field Response of Multiple Nonlinear Antenna Loads due to HPEM Excitation
    The electromagnetic properties of receiving and scattering structures with nonlinear components are difficult to predict, especially if more than one nonlinear load is involved. In this contribution a frame antenna with two diodes that act as nonlinear loads is analyzed. This receiving antenna structure is illuminated by a polarized plane wave, carrying a transient HPEM signal. It is then the given task to compute the electric field distribution in the vicinity of the antenna. To this end, a macromodel of the nonlinearly loaded structure that relates the transient signal to the electric field measured at an observation point is derived. As a result it is seen how recent macromodeling techniques can be applied to solve the given problem step by step. This provides the possibility to further analyze the interaction of the given nonlinear loads by a general framework.

    The response of nonlinearly loaded antennas to repetitive HPEM excitations as obtained from equivalent circuit models
    In this contribution the effects of repetitive pulse excitations on linearly and nonlinearly loaded antennas are studied on the basis of equivalent circuit models. In the known linear case, repetitive pulses can lead to an increase of the amplitudes of oscillations. These oscillations decay, if realistic quality factors are assumed, comparatively quickly. In the considered nonlinear case the effects of repetitive pulses can add up and persist along much larger time scales. This remarkable effect has no equivalent in the linear case.
