Abstract:

The time-domain range for transmitting a subnanosecond pulse and recording its return from a conducting object is described in this report. The advantages and problems associated with Pronys algorithm are given the efforts and progress toward overcoming the problems are described and the results of applying Pronys algorithm to the returns from a hemisphere and a cylinder are shown. The areas of need, both theoretical and experimental, are detailed. Author
