Abstract
The development of science and technologies of microwave frequencies (UHF) has contributed to the fact that the use of ultrawideband (UWB) pulsed signals has emerged as a separate scientific and technical area of radiophysics, requiring a deeper study of the methods of formation, emission, reception and processing of such signals. Aperture radiators are mainly used to transmit UWB signals. This type of emitters is a variety of modifications of mirror antennas, horn antennas of various shapes and profiles, open waveguides, planar and conformal antenna arrays, as well as lens antennas. The classical theory of analysis of radiation and propagation of electromagnetic signals is well known, but its application to the synthesis of UWB emitters in the time domain often becomes too cumbersome and incorrect. Progress in the fields of radar, communications, and radio astronomy in the 1960s stimulated the creation of aperture theory based on physical optics approaches. This theory makes it possible to analyze and calculate the characteristics of mirror radiators and antenna arrays with sufficient accuracy for practical application. It is often possible to use the aperture theory to analyze some horn emitters that have a large radiation surface relative to the spatial dimensions of pulsed signals.
