Brauer f.brauer@tuhh.de R. Krzikalla J. L. ter Haseborg Institute of Measurement Technology and EMC, Hamburg, Germany The development of protection circuits against a variety of electromagnetic disturbances is important to assure the immunity to interferences of an electronic system. In this paper protection elements which were investigated under UWB conditions are now to be tested with HPM signals to achieve a comprehensive protection.
