  • Abstract
    An overview is presented of some of the interesting issues concerning impulse waveforms on materials. An attempt is made to analyze such phenomena as molecular relaxation, signal precursor effects, self-induced transparency, and the natural resonance theory. Proposed applications for impulse radar are discussed.<>
