The report discusses simulation of electromagnetic radiation recorded from astrophysical superluminal sources in laboratory conditions. In particular, we focus on one of the theories of radio emission origin from pulsars, which assumes the generation of superluminal sources in a swirling plasma star. A generator of ultra-wideband electromagnetic pulses, patented by the Institute of General Physics of the Russian Academy of Sciences and the Russian Federal Nuclear Center -VNIIEF is proposed to consider as a laboratory device potentially capable of simulating such radiation. It is noted that in order to solve the problem, it is necessary to make changes to the technology for manufacturing experimental units of this generator. Preliminary estimates of characteristics of the modified structure of the specified generator are described and analyzed.
