Experimental Investigation of Impulse Radar for Mitigation of Effects of Radar Absorbing Materials,

Abstract

This article uses experimental methods from the two areas of frequency-domain and time-domain to investigate electromagnetic scattering associated with targets coated with wave absorbent materials. Results clearly show that UWB signals have a 10-12dB advantage coping with targets coated with wave absorbent materials as compared to the narrow band signals of conventional radar. The explanation is that ultra wide waveband signals clearly possess excellent capabilities for countering narrow band wave absorbent materials.
