“Dictionaries are like watches; the worst is better than none at all, and the best do not run
quite true.”-Samuel Johnson This book is an introduction to ultra-wideband radar technology …

We report the initial results for femtosecond pulse propagation and scattering interactions for
a Lorentz medium obtained by a direct time integration of Maxwell's equations. The …

This paper summarizes algorithms which extend the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD)
solution of Maxwell's equations to nonlinear optics. The use of the FDTD in this field is novel …

This research monograph presents a systematic treatment of the theory of the propagation of
transient electromagnetic fields (such as optical pulses) through dielectric media which …

We develop an efficient method for the analysis of ultra-wide-band (UWB) electromagnetic
pulses (eg, double-exponential pulse) propagating through a waveguide or cold plasma (ie …

When an ultrawide-band electromagnetic pulse penetrates into a causally dispersive
dielectric, the interrelated effects of phase dispersion and frequency dependent attenuation …

We study the stability properties of, and the phase error present in, a finite element scheme
for Maxwell's equations coupled with a Debye or Lorentz polarization model. In one …

The modified asymptotic description of dispersive Gaussian pulse propagation, which is
uniformly valid in the initial pulse envelope width, is shown to reduce to the energy velocity …

As the initial pulse envelope width of an input Gaussian pulse-modulated harmonic wave is
increased above the characteristic relaxation time of a single resonance Lorentz model …

A fast, accurate numerical algorithm based on the Laplace transform is presented. By using
this algorithm, the high-frequency structure present at the onset of the precursor field for both …
