Lightning qualification testing relies on a variety of pulse power generators to produce the waveforms necessary to assess the effects of lightning on aircraft and other aerospace systems. The waveforms necessary to produce the significant effects of natural lightning were determined in airborne characterization programs and are specified in DoD military and FAA standards. This paper overviews waveforms and the pulse power generators applied to lightning qualification testing in terms of their type and general characteristics.
