Abstract

A time domain communications system wherein a broadband of time-spaced signals, essentially monocycle-like signals, are derived from applying stepped-in-amplitude signals to a broadband antenna, for example, a reverse bicone antenna or a pulse-responsive dipole antenna. When received, the thus transmitted signals are multiplied by a D.C. replica of each transmitted signal and thereafter are successively short time and long time integrated to achieve detection.
