My pages about the theory of the drsstc:
http://www.coe.ufrj.br/~acmq/tesla/sstc.html
http://www.coe.ufrj.br/~acmq/tesla/drsstc.html
http://www.coe.ufrj.br/~acmq/tesla/drsstcexcitation.pdf
Most of the material deals on how to design the primary-secondary system 
so it operates as a regular Tesla coil, but excited from a driver 
oscillator instead of using the initial energy stored in the primary 
capacitor. The basic design leads to maximum ideal efficiency for a 
given burst length. Streamer loading causes deviation from the ideal 
behavior, but the ideal design seems to be a good starting point, to be 
adjusted by fine tuning.
