Abstract :
Characterstic of electromagnetic pulse transmission in homogeneous spherical models of human and animal heads are studied as a function of time and position. The incident pulse waveform is described by a triple exponential waveform which exhibits close agreement with measured pulse shapes. The transmitted pulse is shown to be proportional to the time rate of change of the incident pulse, with peak occuring at the leading surface of the spheres.
