Abstract
Ultra-wideband transient microwave scattering measurements are perform ed using optoelectronically switched planar antennas. The laser-based system produces freely propagating bursts of picosecond duration elect romagnetic radiation, with a bandwidth extending from 5 to over 70 GHz . Measurements are presented for scattering from one and two conductin g strips and from a conducting sphere. All measurements are compared t o theoretical computations.
