The Susceptibility of Communication Satellites to the Nuclear Electromagnetic Pulse

The High Altitude Brust (HAB) of a nuclear weapon can produce an Electromagnetic Pulse (EMP) that rises very rapidly (in nanoseconds) to a high voltage (tens of kilovolts per meter). This pulse covers 0 to 100 MHz bandwith or frequency. The radiated EMP can affect a large portion of space with a dia...
