Abstract
UWB radar is of interest because of its highly successful application to ground probing radar and to the challenge of working in an area which requires technology different from more conventional narrowband (NB) radar. The status of UWB technology is examined, and differences between UWB and NB radar are discussed with reference to the transient nature of target scattering, dispersive propagation effects, antenna effects, transmitters, and signal processing.<>
