The development of secondary standard of pulse electric and magnetic field strengths units for measuring instruments calibration in free field over the picosecond range was considered in this work. There a doubled TEM-horn antenna excited by picosecond pulse step generator was chosen as a foundation of secondary standard facility. Computations have shown that radiation of pulses with 1.6 ns duration ensured when length of electrodes is 0.5 m. There was shown that antenna broadbandness depends on feeding section characteristics. Its transient response can be evaluated by “predetermined currents method”. After manufacturing of standard facility experimental investigations was made. Experimental results are in good agreement with computations.
