Realizations of Electromagnetic Pulsed-Beam Wavelets and Applications of Physics-Based Radar Analysis and Sensing

Abstract

A solid and rigorous understanding of electromagnetic pulsed beam wavelet (PBW) sources has been established, though more work is needed to compute realizable current sources (eliminating magnetic charges). New results on using branch cuts to form spheroidal antennas are promising, as they determine the necessary boundary conditions to make the sources nonsingular. The recent computation of the 4D Fourier transform of PBW opens the way toward efficient numerical computations with PBW based on the FFT, including their implementations toward EM wavelet-based radar analysis.
