Abstract :
The characteristics of pulses received by an antenna when it is placed in the field of another antenna excited with step functions are studied. The transmitting and receiving antennas are rectangular loops loaded at their midpoint with a resistance to avoid ringing. The received pulses computed on the basis of an elementary radiation integral compare well with measurements.
