摘要
The extinction pulse (E-pulse) technique has been widely applied to the problem of free-space radar target identification. In this paper, the possibility of applying the same E-pulse technique to a subsurface target recognition scheme is investigated. In particular, the detection of depth changes of a metallic target is considered with numerical examples that determine the depth of a hip prosthesis model buried inside representative human tissue.
