This talk is not about someone on the ground firing a ray gun at a jet and bringing it down, this talk is about someone on the jet injecting EMP in the wiring system of the jet and causing great problems with the aviation systems and the black box. I will define smart and dumb digital devices based to how they respond to injected pulses. The talk will have at least 10 video demos of device pulses and a video of a surge protector. The Marx generator will be explained and a mosfet charging circuit.
Going green, fly by wire airplanes, robotic control trains, densely integrated systems, these are all realities of our daily environment. One problem is that all of these make our life more susceptible to an EMP disruption. Other topics covered include TWA 800, Telsa coil, Byzantine faults and the power grid.
