  • Patent number: 10342111
    Abstract: An electromagnetic pulse protecting method includes: searching a threat 2 that generates an electromagnetic pulse 2a; and generating plasma 6 in a light-condensed point 4 by condensing a laser beam 5 on a light-condensed point 4 in response to detection of the threat 2. Thus, various protection objects which contain a protection object having an electric opening indispensably can be protected from an attack by the electromagnetic pulse.

  • Publication number: 20180080747
    Abstract: A method of irradiating an electromagnetic pulse includes specifying a position of a target having electronic equipment; setting the light-condensing point based on the position of the target; and condensing the laser beam to generate plasma in the light-condensing point such that the electromagnetic pulse generated from the plasma is irradiated to the electronic equipment. In this way, a method and system for irradiating an electromagnetic pulse are realized which can irradiate the electromagnetic pulse of a large output while restraining diffusion of the electromagnetic pulse.
