Title: High frequency, short pulse, band limited radar pulse generator for ultrashort range radar systems

Abstract: An RF pulse generator including a voltage pulse generator comprised of an avalanche transistor biased for operation in its avalanche region. A delay line coupled to the avalanche transistor causes the avalanche transistor to switch between its on and off states to generate repeated high voltage subnanosecond voltage pulses. These pulses control a varactor diode RF switch supplied with an RF signal to generate subnanosecond coherent RF pulses which are transmitted and detected in an ultrashort range radar system.
