Abstract

We investigate the change/development of an ultra-wideband (UWB) impulse-like waveform during propagation and scattering by a perfectly conducting (PEC) object. Using the physical optics approximation, we find that the scattered pulse shape is proportional to the time derivative of the incident pulse, as well as a function of the scatterer geometry. These results have implications for the selection of the transmitter waveform and the receiver signal processor architecture and its effectiveness. © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
