Abstract: Using the analogy with the electrostatics, in general, the problem of the spatial (three-dimensional) distribution of the electric area of the radiation pulses, which is defined as the time integral of the electric field strength, is resolved in general case when the radiation is generated by the movement of electric charges in a vacuum. The possibility of the formation of unipolar radiation pulses, in which the main polarization component does not change sign during the pulse, is demonstrated.

Keywords: unipolar radiation pulses, electric pulse area.
