ABSTRACT:
This disclosure relates to a system and method for pulse generation. A system in accordance with the present disclosure may include a power dissipating element configured to receive power from a power source. At least one of the power source and the power dissipating element may be configured to generate a first signal. The system may further include a measuring instrument in communication with the power source. The measuring instrument may be configured to measure the first signal and to provide an input corresponding to a measured signal to a duty cycle limiter. The system may also include a pulse controller operatively connected to the power source. The pulse controller may be configured to control a duty cycle of the first signal and to receive a second signal from the duty cycle limiter. The pulse controller may be configured to disable at least one of the power source and the power dissipating element if the duty cycle limiter has determined that a maximum condition has been exceeded. Other embodiments are also within the scope of the present disclosure.
