Design of an Ultra-Wideband Spiral Antenna for Ground-Penetrating Microwave Impulse Radar Applications

Radar systems that allow early detection of underground IEDs can save lives. The Microwave Impulse Radar (MIR) capable of IED detection requires antennas capable of transmitting sub-nanosecond pulses over ultra-wideband (UWB) frequency ranges. This thesis investigates the suitability of a novel MIR...
