Abstract

A growing interest has arisen in the area of ultrawideband/short pulse radiation, propagation and diffraction (see [1] and references therein). Several schemes of ultrawideband excitation and radiation have been investigated [2–4]. Experimental studies have also been conducted and physical systems for ultrawideband/short pulse radiation have been developed, some of them based on optoelectronic technology (see reviews in [1]). Important applications are anticipated with respect to this relatively new technology, for both commercial and military purposes. Applications of interest include soft-damage and hard-damage weapons, communication systems, radar systems and remote sensing.
