Abstract
The feasibility of using the E-pulse technique to identify the values of a resistance card (R-card) contained within a material stack is demonstrated. The late-time response of a material stack is modeled as a resonance series and an E pulse is constructed to extinguish this response. Results using measured data show that it is possible to identify the R-card value from among five potential candidates.
