Abstract :
A compact sounding system is described that uses the radar (10-GHz) return from a transmitted pulse of ultrasound (22 kHz) for temperature determination and for range measurement of targets. The targets may be nonreflective for ultrasound or microwaves or may show reflections. Technical details are given and experimental results are described for temperature profiling and range determination.<>
