Abstract :
In this paper a characterization of UWB Radar targets is provided, both in the frequency domain and in the time domain. This is done by firstly giving a mathematical description of the Radar target in the UWB case, then providing measurement results. The proposed characterization allows for discerning and classifying UWB targets. Moreover, in this paper a full polarimetric analysis is taken into account.
