Electromagnetic Signals Reflection, Focusing, Distortion, and Their Practical Applications / by Henning F. Harmuth, Malek G.M. Hussain, Raouf N. Boules.

Electromagnetic Signals deals with the practical applications of nonsinusoidal electromagnetic waves or carrier free radars, ultrawideband technology and large relative bandwidth technology. The book is unique since it deals with a number of current conventional radar problems along with proposed so...
