Abstract
Referring to UWB-sensor applications and impulse radio, the ideal behavior of impulse radiating antennas will be summarized and some new characteristic functions will be introduced. The time domain Friis-formula will be derived based on normalized guided and free waves. By using the p-norm, a method is introduced to define the characteristic values and functions which can either refer to an antenna or yet the whole transmission chain.
