Abstract :
Some preliminary work relating to the pulse radar return from ionized media, such as fireballs resulting from nuclear explosions and the wakes of high-speed reentry vehicles, is reported. In all cases the objective is to retrieve the envelope of the backscattered signal correctly related in time to the transmitted pulse.
