Abstract
An Ultra-Wideband (UWB) transmitter array consists of N individual transmitters coupled to a reference cw oscillator. Each of the N transmitters generates a waveform consisting of a number of cycles of a nominal carrier frequency of f.sub.0. The duration of the amplitude spectrum of the envelope of each signal is T. The transmitters are arranged in close proximity to form a multipole moment and are precisely synchronized to each other and delayed appropriately so that the resulting amplitude spectrum of the envelope of the transmitter array is due to a pulse duration of NT seconds. This reduces the overall signal bandwidth by a factor of N, at the same time increasing the radiated energy by a factor of N.
