A pulsed modulator is described which is based on forming electromagnetic shock waves in a transmission line containing ferrite. The minimum length of the output pulses is 5 nsec, their amplitude is 20 kV, the output impedance is 75 ..cap omega.., and the repetition frequency is 2.5 kHz. The modulator is designed for operation into an unmatched load. The matching circuit of the thyratron generator producing the original pulses and of the nonlinear short-pulse shaper ensures the reduction of the level of the repeated pulses across the load down to 10 percent.
