[0002] As the space offensive and defensive situation intensifies, strong electromagnetic attacks have become the main anti-satellite means, posing a serious threat to the safety of spacecraft in orbit. The use of miniaturized high-power microwave weapons carried by spacecraft for in-orbit attacks is the future attack method for spacecraft. Compared with other anti-satellite weapons, this attack method has the characteristics of concealment, high efficiency, wide attack range, and no influence from the external environment. It is an effective attack method in a non-total war situation and poses a serious threat to the safety of spacecraft in orbit.

The electromagnetic pulse emission and protection effectiveness under thermal vacuum conditions are different from those at normal temperature. There is no data mechanism for the electromagnetic pulse attack and protection effectiveness changes under the influence of the space environment. Summary of the invention
