Abstract
Radar systems have been found in several electromagnetic applications such as medical image capture and editing. In this paper, we study the electromagnetic interaction with human body in the UWB frequency range. In an attempt to compute the reflection and transmission wave by each layer of the human body, we will apply an analytic method. Our solution consists in recursion expression that discards the mutual influence between human body layers to estimate the echo of each layer which involves human body of a radar incident impulsion. With this result we are capable to compute reflected and transmitted electromagnetic wave by each layer of human tissues in an attempt to capture image of human body structure.
