Abstract
Abstract
A technique utilizing the convolution theorem is developed to obtain the time‐domain electromagnetic response for a number of input pulses from the given step‐function response. For illustration an idealized model of a homogeneously conducting non‐permeable sphere placed in a uniform field is considered. The nature of the responses due to different types of pulses and their usefulness in estimating the constitution parameter of the sphere are discussed. To show the applicability of the suggested technique to generalized systems, calculations for a conducting permeable sphere are presented in the appendix.
