There doesn't seem to have been much speculation this time around about RF being beamed into the device from outside, although this has been a topic of speculation in the past. It seems like any special waveform going into the joule heating would be an irrelevant detail to the testing if proper, full spectrum measurements were made of the power coming in from the wall; whether and to what extent this was done remains to be clarified by the authors. If I had to speculate, the pulses are not all that special -- they're just to maximize the heat of the system without relying on an unstable T^4 law. I get the impression that this is what Defkalion are trying to do as well. Sort of like integrating the area under a curve by slicing it up into a bunch of pulses that are easy to control. Eric
