Brauer f.brauer@tuhh.de 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 of an electronic system. In this paper the behavior of linear and nonlinear filters is measured and simulated with high power microwave (HPM) signals to achieve a comprehensive protection against different high power electromagnetic (HPEM) threats.
